Of course it must be remembered that the history written by the Saudis cannot be trusted for its authenticity, they wanted to break away from the Khilafat Uthmaniya, and rebel against it...and to achieve this they had to fight against Muslims and kill them. Of course by doing this they had to justify it by calling them mushriks.

What will you say if a saudi said this to you :
"Of course, it must be remembered that the history written by those who oppose the da'wa of the Shakh cannot be trusted for its authenticity, they wanted to [put here what ever reasons he could give you]... and to achieve this they have to exagerate some mistakes which the Shaykh or his followers may have made. Of course by doing this, they had to obtain a scholarly opinion to sustain them and so they presetend distorted facts or quotes to scholars so that they call the Shaykh and his followers as deviant."

My point is just that if it must be remembered that the Saudis may have shortcomings in relating what happened during this era, the same can and must be said for those who opposed them.
