(Globe and Mail-Canada) Robert Matas - Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper says a consensus is growing among world leaders that Iran would have no hesitation using nuclear arms once they develop the weapons and the capability to deliver them. "I've watched and listened to what the leadership in the Iran regime says, and it frightens me," Harper said in a CBC interview. "In my judgment, these are people who have a particular, you know, fanatically religious worldview, and their statements imply to me no hesitation of using nuclear weapons if they see them achieving their religious or political purposes." Harper said he has no doubt that Iran is developing nuclear weapons. "There is absolutely no doubt they are lying," he said. "The evidence is just growing overwhelming."
