You do not think that King Abdallah of Saudi Arabia and all the other absolute monarchs are the greatest friends of the ongoing Arab revolution because they have called on the USA to militarily attack the sister nation Libya, removing Qadhafi (who has so often trampled them on the nose), and have invaded Bahrein in order to support the revolution there? I still think that cheerleading the revolt in Libya from the sidelines is "vanity under the sun" (Ecclesiastes 4:4) while the important task is to fight against the imperialist and other foreign interventions into the struggle, in order to secure the breathing space for the Libyan people to sort out their affairs themselves. Fidel Castro's "reflections" help a lot to lead this effort. He is still the most important revolutionary leader of our lifetime.
