Top British transplant surgeons have accused China of harvesting the organs of thousands of executed prisoners a year to sell for transplants.
The British Transplantation Society condemned the practice as unacceptable and a breach of human rights, in a statement released on Wednesday.
The move comes less than a week after Chinese officials publicly denied the practice.

Sorta begs for a little black humor...
"I'll take one from column A and one from column B."
"Yeah, but does it come with egg roll?"
"How's the moo goo brain pan?"
"Two hours after a new liver, you feel like getting another one."
And... for Bill Gates... "But what's the operating system?"
Oh, well; sorry about that.

20,000,000 males without prospects for a bride. The lady says they will be a menace to society. I agree. I predict bad haircuts, flood pants, no hygiene (dental or otherwise), increased sales for video games, etc. As for the organ sales, the prospect of collecting taxes is probably less than the offer of a quick infusion of cash for the poor slobs pituitary gland. A 'no brainer' decision here has that nuance thingy going for it over there.
Wow - 20,000,000 males without a bride... I predict a surge in interior decorators, hair stylists, antique dealers, and well-manicured little boutiques selling gourmet kitchenware.
Opium dens, adult beverages, nasty euro cigarettes, girly magazines, freerepublic in China...no wait, not the last one.
When America compromises it's principles to create closer ties to new cultures that don't respect life in any way, this is the inevitable result. Sadly enough, we have even more of a struggle against our own here in this country with abortion. Yet think about it - What is "organ harvesting" but retroactive abortion to the Chinese? These prisoners were going to die anyways... what a waste it would be!
Gah...I wish I had finished my breakfast first.
You have to wonder if the British doctors are worried bacause of a human rights issue or because they are losing business to China because they have the organs and the Brits dont. Follow the Money.

Whether or not this is a sicker century than any of the others is a historical debate, but mankind most certainly isn't improving his moral record. Progress? Technological only.
Those "prisoners" are probably Christians and Falun Gong and most certainly political dissidents.
Meanwhile the leader of all this parties in the U.S.A. with the obscenely rich .
The Chinese have traditionally been polygamous and the shortage of women have never caused problems in history. Muslim men normally have multiple wives as well.
