Honestly that decision is bizarre! The numbers of individuals importing this from the Arab world will probably be in the triple digits at most. I strongly doubt there's that many blu-ray collectors there. So since this release is for the American (or Western) market, most purchasers won't be fluent in Arabic, so adding English subtitles would have been a no-brainer. Tbh I cannot recall an American or British release in the last years lacking English subtitles on a (from an English language perspective) foreign film.
The decision to one the one hand include it but on the other hand not invest in subtitles is mind-boggling to me. Who are they trying to attract with this second disc? The massive blu-ray collectors market in Dearborn (MI)?
