Sorry but you got it all wrong, in fact we had a couple of battle with them and mostly won without Britain intervening. And Sheikh Mubarak Al-Subah helped AbdulAziz Bin Saud to capture what is now Saudi Arabia when fighting against Bin Rashid then Britain intervened to help out because Shiekh Mubarak of Kuwait helped out. Btw Both Al-Sabah and Al-Saud are cuzins.

hmm, I lived in KSA for most of my life, so perhaps the versions we have are a tad bit different, from what I 'know' Al Sabah wanted to eliminate Bin Rashid, and supported Ibn Saud for that end, and there was only one battle. not that it matters:)
Jalal Kushk has an interesting historical book called السعوديون و الحل الإسلامي, which could be considered neutral but leaning pro Ibn Saud at times,

he discusses the battle briefly from 493-499 if I'm not mistaken, it's a very good book otherwise for Saudi Arabia's history told by someone who doesn't hate them:).
