[edit] Ottoman and Rashidis

According to Hogarth, the penetration of arabia, Al Obaikan Publishing (no ISBN avilible), The introduction says that Iraqi Ottomans was involved in all battles as an allies with Rashidis. A M M A R 12:19, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

That's probably an over-generalization by Hogarth. Al-Mulayda was well-documented and none of the accounts I've read mention Ottoman troops. Direct Ottoman involvement only began after Abdul Aziz returned to Najd. -- Slacker (talk) 23:34, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
