Bob sent me this in response that was sent to me by A. yesterday: ”
The story about the Saudi-Ibadhi contains many factual errors
1- Ibn Bazz died in 1999. He couldn’t have had issued a fatwa against Ibadhis in 2009. Even if the author meant to write 1999 it still does not reflect reality because the Wahhabi and Ibn Bazz have long declared Ibadhis as deviant. You can check ???? ?????? ??????? ??? 6935. I do not know yet the date of the fatwa but it definitely predates 1999 since one of the signatories on this fatwa is Ibn Bazz and its number indicates that it has been issued long time before the death of Ibn Bazz. The number of fatwas of ?????? ??????? under Ibn Bazz goes beyong 21000. Also you can check this fatwa
????? ??? (15255)

2- It is untrue that the wahhabi have recently started agitating against the Ibadhis accusing them of opressing the Sunnis in Oman. It started long time ago. Here is one speech by Mamdouh Al Harbi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-nQqxnnl-w
it is really disgusting how this Mamdouh Al Harbi decries how the Omani Gov. bans the Wahhabi (he calls them Ahlus-Sunna) books from entering Oman while the wahhabi do not allow Even Al Azhar books from entering Saudi Arabia.
The issue between Ibn Bazz and Al Khalili goes back 30 years from today. It was on 1986 when Al Khalili challenged Ibn Bazz for an open debate.”
