From that perspective, sure, the Malaysians are in it up to their eyeballs. But I doubt that you'll find anyone on the Al Qaeda hotlist hiding out there.

There are two different types that we're talking about: those who have taken money and training from Al Qaeda in support of objectives they were already pursuing, and those who have provided resources to Al Qaeda to support attacks on the US. SEA has lots of those in the first category; Sufaat is just one. If those in the second, or any senior AQ leaders, are around, they are well hidden.

It would be a mistake to assume that Al Qaeda is responsible for Islamic militancy in SEA. The militants here will take support from anyone that offers it, but they existed long before AQ and will continue to exist after AQ is gone.
