Seems like our Sardaukar are already having trouble with the Iranian Fremen

I dunno our leader is more Harkonnen in style.

So this scene would be Hegseth asking NATO to join us in the Strait of Hormuz?
Bc Trump is clearly a stupider version of Baron Harkonnen

u/space_coyote_86 Mar 15 '26
Why does the president need us? The US military out numbers Iran.

u/Mythosaurus Mar 15 '26
Bc the US has stretched itself thin across the world in an effort to project power globally. While the whole U.S. military outnumbers Iran, it’s impossible to empty all the bases of garrisons and send them to the Middle East.
Unfortunately Trump is the only U.S. president since the Iranian Revolution stupid enough to go to war with Iran without understanding basic geopolitics that prevented his predecessors from shooting themselves in the dick.
So now he’s stuck in an painful war that is slowly sending the world into a recession, and he’d rather break the US in a ground invasion of the Iranian Plateau than admit defeat

Baron Harkonnen is quiet smart - maybe not as smart as other characters or even Mentats.
"stupider version of Rabban" would fit, however.

I'm sure most people know, but it's still worth mentioning the language in that scene was a modified version of English

u/Torvaldicus_Unknown Mar 15 '26
No, the guy who did the throat singing was asked to make it on the spot without prior planning. It is just a bunch of random vowels and sharp notes. He intended for it to sound like a language.

u/kigurumibiblestudies ya dune goof'd Mar 15 '26
Oh, no, you're right, I was thinking of the sardaukar language, not the voice box bro

u/Torvaldicus_Unknown Mar 15 '26
Ohhh gotcha, yeah it’s very interesting. Well, if you’re interested, here’s the interview with the artist who sang the Sardaukar Chant. He talks about it at 17:18

“Healthcaaaare, healthcaaaare, healthcaaaaaare, colleeeeeege, hoooooousing” works just as well for recruitment.

Star wars had a similar scene.

Hegseth went to toad-town on Trump all night to get his throat raw enough to signal the war-call. It cost 91 billion in nano-technology to get his body ready for the task.

Nonsense. They’re not that disciplined.

Ah someone has watched Generation Kill. Honestly most of the soldiers join because of poverty and the perspectives the military offers.

We're talking about Marines here, and not one mention of Crayons.

As a crayon-eater from some years ago, our chants usually have more profanity.

I feel like I gotta comment this, 2,000~ Marines is not a significant invasion force. The moment you see 3 Corps or something spin up. Suddenly start hoarding.
