They'll play deep into the terrorism angle, explicitly as it applies to the history of proxy warfare. We already know this is gonna be Snake's revenge story and have seen what appears to be the MSF, which has became its own nation at the end of Peace Walker, in the process of radicalizing (purging weakness from the ranks, readiness to torture own members), but its placed historically to parallel the events of Iran-Contra and the revelation that the CIA sponsored attacks to weave fear into a population and destabilize its local government.
Because behind this is the fight between Snake Military might and Zero's social controls (even if the latter isn't getting screen time),it will probably use the ideas of language that the e3 trailer revealed to counter both: the dangers of ideological echochambers in the first and idea manipulation in the second.
