Cloningbusiness family-friendly cloning business

Where is the best place, and indeed, who is the best person to establish a family-friendly clinic (FFC) with a vision to help people interested in eternal life?
One might think Israel to be a likely place because of its obsession with immortality. However, Israel has placed a moratorium on human cloning in Israel for the time being and until it is lifted we should tactfully look elsewhere. Israel has deep associations with traditional Rome, so Italy might be a suitable place; and I know of one Italian, Doctor Severino Antinori, who may have already started cloning humans.
The first factor that is likely to affect the family -friendly clinic's location is the local law. Is human cloning legal in Italy? In a word - no. In 2005,
Italy voted for the United Nations' resolution against human cloning:

"Member States were called on to adopt all measures necessary to prohibit all forms of human cloning inasmuch as they are incompatible with human dignity and the protection of human life."

Consequently, it appears Italy is an unlikely place for the first family-friendly human cloning clinic.
I would like to digress and consider the UN's resolution for a while. The key to this resolution is the word incompatible. After reading it I asked myself how could making a copy of a living human be incompatible with human dignity when this is the very technique that has been used for thousands of years to maintain our presence on Earth? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Do we condemn natural clones, in other words, identical twins? No, they are accepted into our society as part of nature's way of doing things.
How can human cloning be incompatible with the protection of human life when this is the natural method that is used to preserve human life through the creation of children who are like their parents and who will survive after parents have passed away?
I feel that the United Nations' resolution was adopted to simply help give us time to clarify our thinking regarding the cloning of humans, and that doctors involved in cloning humans in the future would screen and reject patients and clients who have the wrong motives, without the need for national legislation. However, having stated that, I think a government officer should also aprove each and every act of human cloning to ensure national regulations and guidelines are being enforced.
