Who rules Saudi Arabia

It would be fair to say that since the incapacitatation of King Fahd in the 1990s, the Tuwayjiri family (which has run for years `Abdullah bin `Abdul-`Aziz) has been running the kingdom.  Even the personal life of the King (before he was king), has been governed by the family.  They for example were the ones who prevented him from marrying the love of his life, the Lebanese singer, Samirah Tawfiq.

PS Yes, for the umpteenth time.  I do have sources in the Saudi royal family, believe it or not.
