Dubai, June 22: The Al Qaeda would use Pakistan's nuclear weapons against the US if it was able to get its hands on them, a top commander of the terror group has said.
"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," said Mustafa Abu al-Yazid in an interview to Al Jazeera channel aired Sunday.
"We expect that the Pakistani army would be defeated (in Swat) ... and that would be its end everywhere, God willing," Iran's Press TV quoted him as saying.
The Pakistani army is battling the Taliban in the North West Frontier Province and the military has claimed significant successes in the operations.
