Greg Tinti [1] has the details on this developing story [2]. There are two hijackers, and reports from Turkish Airlines are that no passengers have been harmed. This was done apparently to protest the Pope’s upcoming visit to Turkey.
Update: This story has taken a strange twist. Stop the ACLU [3] has the details.
Not sure if I’m buying the alleged ‘real’ reason why the plane was hijacked. I’m sure we’ll find out more in the coming days.
