There's also that superb scene in series 1 episode III with the Hitler Youth Fedaykin urging Paul to kill Stilgar. (Anyone who's seen the fine miniseries knows what I mean). (Moah wouldn't have enjoyed it, though).
Not to mention the execution of prisoners in series 2 episode I. Those Bastard Atreides: unbelievable atrocities, eh?
