Is Shark Fin soup illegal in Britain?

Is Shark Fin Soup illegal in Britain? (& U.S etc) I really hope it is, but I haven’t managed to find out.
The more I discover about this brutal business, it’s also an environmental issue…the more I think we should take sanctions against China.
We should be doing that already what with the Dog meat trade, but one thing at a time…..

Can you help me ? :)?

What are you willing to give up to stop Global Warming? Driving, meat, having more then 1 child, how much?

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took part in a roundtable discussion on environmental issues, and said afterwards that “one of the participants pointed out that it’s rather odd to talk about climate change and what we must do to stop and prevent the ill effects without talking about population and family planning.

CNN’s Jack Cafferty all but endorsed a global version of China’s oppressive one-child policy on Friday’s Situation Room. He repeated the argument of Canadian journalist Diane Francis, that population control is the only way to fight global warming

FUNNY THING HAPPENED ALONG THE WAY TO DOOMS DAY – 20 years ago I wrote a school paper on how the population bomb predictions of the 1960s had been so wrong and doom never happened then they admitted that their dooms day predictions of starvation and economic ruin for our world were so wrong because “they forgot to add in the work of the new population” These same nuts from the 1960s are running around Copenhagen asking that a “China like” one child global policy be put in to save the world from Global Warming. Same crowd new cause same old messed up thinking.

Are you ready whether you believe or not in Global Warming to give up YOUR FREEDOM to REPRODUCE? Don’t believe me google it.

Famous political activist Dick Gregory currently on hunger strike for 9/11 truth. Was 9/11 an inside job?

It was so painful for me as my wife Lil and I watched the events of September 11, 2001 on television. Seeing a plane hit the World Trade Center (WTC) North Tower at 8:46, then a second plane hit the South Tower at 9:02. Shortly, we saw the firefighters and other first responders courageously going into the buildings hoping to extinguish the fires, but it was impossible to foresee what followed.

Then we watched in shock as nearly a dozen people were jumping from the upper floors to their deaths.

We felt profound horror at 9:59 as the South Tower cascaded in freefall into its own footprint, and then 29 minutes later when the North Tower came down in the same impossible freefall way.

The new forensic evidence which is being released today by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth demonstrates the presence of controlled demolition materiel in the World Trade Center buildings One and Two.

Just one week after September 11, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Christine Todd Whitman declared “I am glad to reassure the people of New York and Washington DC that their air is safe to breathe and their water is safe to drink” and that we “. . . need not be concerned about environmental issues as [we return to [our] homes and workplaces”.

Yet to this day, at least 900 first responders have since died as a result of the effects of toxic “dust” from the buildings and the some 3,000 human remains that enveloped lower Manhattan and which Mayor Rudolph Giuliani declared “We must clear the rubble”. This “rubble” in fact constituted evidence from a massive crime scene, but was hauled away, first to Long Island, and then was eventually placed on barges and shipped to China.

One thing I know is that the official government story of those events, as well as what took place that day at the Pentagon, is just that, a story. This story is not the truth, but far from it.

I was born on October 12, 1932. I am announcing today that I will be consuming only liquids beginning Sunday until my eightieth birthday in 2012 and until the real truth of what truly happened on that day emerges and is publicly known.

WTC Building #7, a 47-story high-rise not hit by an airplane, exhibited all the characteristics of classic controlled demolition with explosives:
1. Rapid onset of “collapse”
2. Sounds of explosions at ground floor – a second before the building’s destruction
3. Symmetrical “structural failure” — through the path of greatest resistance — at free-fall acceleration
4. Imploded, collapsing completely, and landed in its own footprint
5. Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic dust clouds
6. Expert corroboration from the top European Controlled Demolition professional
7. Fore-knowledge of “collapse” by media, NYPD, FDNY

In the the aftermath of WTC7’s destruction, strong evidence of demolition using incendary devices was discovered:
8. FEMA finds rapid oxidation and intergranular melting on structural steel samples
9. Several tons of molten metal reported by numerous highly-qualified witnesses
10. Ch
