I noticed in the first movie they cut out most of the Muslim imagery, as well as the Fremen guy who kamikazes a ship (iirc). Guessing there's more of the same in part 2?
Nope Americans are just so deeply misinformed they miss the obvious and think all the good guys and resistance fighters are them. Movie has plenty of Arab and Berber allusions.
Second movie is much better about it, though they still refuse to use "jihad" as a term probably for burger reasons (it would send 80-90% of an american audience into a berserk state)
I mean, they also changed the "Long live the fighters" from the books where it is "Ya Hya Chouhada!".
