and your point is....?

Coal? Oh right. Suddenly making kerosene from coal is going to be stupendously easy and cheap. Yeah right. Ask the Germans about that.

It might be an idea for an air force sucking from the taxpayer tit but will UPS and DAS etcetera be able to afford it?

As for LH buying the 747, go and ask the cheerleaders on !!!!!!!!!!!!!! as they love to squabble and spin garbage like that. AFAIK Lufthansa bought it as it's the best size and shape for their needs, plus they got the sweetheart deal a launch customer always gets on a new type. They might even get to fly it if the JAA don't block its certification up.
