The Sept. 22 letter was sent only four days after the European Centre for Law and Justice urged the United Nation's human rights office to hold Iran and Ahmadinejad accountable for recent human rights abuses.

Other signers of the Sept. 22 letter included Charles Colson, chairman of Prison Fellowship; Pat Robertson, president of the Christian Broadcasting Network; Tom Minnery, senior vice president of Focus on the Family; Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America; Gary Bauer, president of American Values; and Nina Shea, director of the Hudson Institute's Center for Religious Freedom.

Land and Shea are both members of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, a bipartisan nine-member panel that reports to the White House and Congress on the state of religious liberty overseas.
