DUBAI (Reuters) - If it were in a position to do so, Al Qaeda would use Pakistan's nuclear weapons in its fight against the United States, a top leader of the group said in remarks aired on Sunday.
Pakistan has been battling al Qaeda's Taliban allies in the Swat Valley since April after their thrust into a district 100 km (60 miles) northwest of the capital raised fears the nuclear-armed country could slowly slip into militant hands.
"God willing, the nuclear weapons will not fall into the hands of the Americans and the mujahideen would take them and use them against the Americans," Mustafa Abu al-Yazid, the leader of al Qaeda's in Afghanistan, said in an interview with Al Jazeera television.
Hey, it none of our business.
He could sit down with al Qaeda without preconditions and talk this all out.
I thought this is what he said he was going to do as President.Can we discuss this Al Qaeda thing seriously, or are you just looking to Obama bash?

It's none of our business.Pakistan has already stepped up on this.
The West should give weapons and aid to Pakistan to help them root out the extremists.
I believe he said world leaders.He said Iran, not Al Qaeda and you know it.

So you don't think it would work?There are no Al Qaeda leaders of any nation.
Guns and ammo are provocative.
Are they short on either?Lets limit it to money and aid such as medicine then
Negotiations are what I've been talking about. Someone got elected because he said we were interfering everywhere. So now what's changed?What we need to do is help them negotiate with India over that whole Kashmir thing... if they can get a good deal out of it, they'd be willing to do whatever we told them in regards to terrorism. Alienating yet another country is the last thing we want to do right now.
American, quit with the troll bait.
