Will Qatar Pilots be considered "Strikbreakers"?

**I meant "Strike Breakers" but it's too late to change the spelling in the thread title.

I'm just curious, what would be the long term ramifications for the poor Qatar guys who will be required to fly the Strikebreaking flights for British Airways next week?

I really feel for those pilots, as they will have no choice but to fly the schedules they are given. But what if they ever want to go home and get a job in Europe, as most expats in the region consider doing? Will they be considered Strikebreakers and branded as "Scabs" for life?

It must be a really tough position for them, given that they cannot refuse the flights.
