Lufthansa pilots suspend strike, but chaos continues
Frankfurt – Four thousands Lufthansa pilots planned to hold a four-day walkout, that disrupted flights for thousands of people, cut short their strike for 12 hours when the union and the airline agreed to hold talks, both sides said.
This strike, however, was just the tip of the chaos iceberg. Also on February 22, five unions that represent air traffic controllers from France announced they would hold their own strike starting February 23. The British Airways P.L.C., meanwhile, also faces new threats of cabin crew strikes, when their union made an announcement that its members voted in favor of a walkout.
About 10,000 passengers whose flights were delayed were greatly upset by the pilots’ strike. In anticipation of the strike, Lufthansa had earlier cancelled its regular flight from Philly to Frankfurt, through Thursday, February 25, and instead booked passengers on US Airways Group’s daily flight from Philadelphia, and in other carriers vying from Newark, N.J., according to Jennifer Janzen, the airline’s spokesperson.

Suspects admits New York bomb plot
An Afghan national and immigrant to the US has pleaded guilty in a federal court to plotting a bomb attack on certain subway system within New York City.
Najibullah Zazi, 25, also admitted that he took up a bomb-making and weapons training from the terrorist group Al-Qaeda in Waziristan region, Pakistan, within Afghanistan’s border. He also pleaded guilty to conspiracy to use weapons of mass destruction, conspiracy to commit murder in a foreign country and providing material support to al-Qaeda. According to Zazi, while en-route to Afghanistan from Pakistan, he and unnamed others were recruited by al-Qaeda who asked them to fly back to the US to do the martyrdom operations.
“The plan was to conduct (a) martyrdom operation in Manhattan” around the time of the eighth anniversary of the attacks of September 11, 2001,” Zazi admitted to the court.
“To me, it meant I would sacrifice myself to bring attention to what the US military was doing to civilians in Afghanistan.”
At least four other suspects are also facing charges in connection with the case – Zazi’s father, two of Zazi’s high school classmates, and an imam in New York City. Zazi now faces life imprisonment.
