DEMAND TOUGHER U.N. SANCTIONS

The Security Council has already passed two resolutions imposing sanctions on Iran for its development of nuclear weapons. But Iran continues to thumb its nose at the international community. Tell the U.N. that even tougher sanctions are critical:

Dear Ambassador Natalegawa:

We are writing to urge you and your fellow Security Council members to take strong action against Iran's nuclear weapons program.

Iran's words and actions have made it clear that they are quickly progressing towards building a nuclear weapon and a delivery system. At the same time, Iran remains a state sponsor of terrorism - funding and training terrorist organizations and cultivating extremist forces. Its leaders have repeatedly called for Israel’s demise and have propagated base anti-Semitism, including the denial of the Holocaust.

We urge you to expeditiously impose a third sanctions regime on Iran to complement Resolutions 1637 and 1747. The international community has the responsibility to take all action possible to prevent a nuclear bomb from reaching the hands of this rash and radical regime.
