Nearly 50 Christian leaders in the US have called on world leaders to take urgent action to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
In a letter to the US Congress this week the leaders warned that a nuclear-armed Iran would “almost certainly” spark an arms race in the Middle East.
Among the prominent leaders to sign the letter was Pat Robertson, president of Christian Broadcasting Network {CBN},
Tough actions proposed include a total arms embargo and a halt to exports of refined petroleum products, including gasoline, from Iran.
The economic sanctions would also apply to foreign companies that export, ship, finance or broker refined petroleum products to Iran.
Christian leaders noted that though Iran has large oil reserves, it is unable to refine its petroleum products and is vulnerable to such sanctions.

Sugar prices are set to go down next month following the re-opening of factories that had closed down for maintenance. This is because they are expected to be more productive with the improvements made to their equipment and operations. But experts say cane farmers who had their harvests long overdue may see profits slump due to long waits during the factory maintenance and upgrade period. |

Renault have been given a two-year suspended ban from Formula 1 for their role in fixing last year's Singapore Grand Prix.
The team were called before governing body the FIA to answer charges they had asked driver Nelson Piquet Jr to crash to help team-mate Fernando Alonso win.
Former team boss Flavio Briatore has been banned from FIA-sanctioned events for an unlimited period.
Ex-engineering director Pat Symonds has also been excluded for five years.
Briatore and Symonds parted company with Renault last week at the same time as the French car giant said they would not contest the charges.
The FIA agreed not to pursue action against Piquet in return for his role in uncovering the details of the scandal. |

Craig Bellamy and Gary Neville will not face improper conduct charges from the Football Association over their behaviour in Sunday's Manchester derby.
Instead Manchester City striker Bellamy and Manchester United defender Neville have been warned over their behaviour.
Bellamy appeared to shove a fan in the face after the supporter went on to the pitch, while Neville ran towards City's fans after United's dramatic 4-3 win.
Neville was a non-playing substitute in a match decided by a Michael Owen goal.
Three years ago Neville received a £5,000 FA fine and was warned over his future conduct after he celebrated in front of Liverpool's fans after United secured a late winner over their rivals at Old Trafford.

Assistant minister Danson Mungatana has announced his resignation from the Kenya Government.
In a double blow to the fragile Coalition Government, the Medical Services Assistant minister joins her party chairperson Martha Karua, who resigned on Monday, out of government.
Earlier, the Narc Kenya party said Ms Karua’s resignation was a culmination of roadblocks that stood on the road to reforms and expressed full support for her decision.
The party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) held a meeting on Tuesday and resolved that members of the party who are in the Cabinet will make individual decisions on whether to stay in government or quit.
The party stated that Ms Karua’s resignation should open effective public debate on Agenda Four and government action on various issues among them continued tolerance to corruption, reforms in the judiciary, resettlement of IDPs, land reforms among others.
“We are joining in solidarity with the party chair and are asking reform oriented Kenyans to walk with us this reform path regardless of the outcome for there is always a price to pay,” said a statement from the NEC.
National Organising Secretary Danson Mungatana read the party’s resolutions.
Assistant ministers Robinson Githae and Asman Kamama, who are officials of the party announced that they would stay on and fight for reforms from within. |
