It’s official: Hwang is a fraud. His own university investigators determined that he deliberately misled the world about his supposed cloning breakthroughs. Nine out of the eleven stem cell lines were faked and the other two have yet to be confirmed. The LA Times is on the story.
Look now for the same pro cloners who were saying we need to federally fund human cloning to catch up to the South Koreans to not miss a beat and claim we need federal funding of human cloning so we can do it right. And look for the mainstream media to mildly cover the story, which can’t be ignored, but not give it the blockbuster treatment it deserves for fear of aiding the anti-human cloning political campaign.
What we need to do is outlaw all human cloning.
