To represent the feelings of the Arab anti-regime demonstrators and revolutionaries the New York Times chooses... Saudi Billionaire Prince Al-Walid bin Talal, who then goes on to praise the Saudi regime as going in the right direction. You'll never guess what metaphor he uses to describe recent events. Yes "The winds of change are blowing across our region with force, and it would be folly to suppose that they will soon dissipate." ARGHHHRGH.
