The Simpsons and Bashir

While I was procrastinating today, I decided to watch Simpsons on Fancast, the episode entitled “Mypods and Boomsticks.” Spolier Alert. In this episode, Bart befriends Bashir bin Laden from Jordan…you can probably guess where the episode is leading to. The guys at Moe’s tell Homer that Bashir and his parents are terrorists and Homer believes them. The part I found comical was whenHomer says something like he will only believe the family members are terrorists when he sees a tv show lying about the matter.I mean, it clearly makes fun of how people are quick to judge what the media depicts. Hopefully, those who watch the Simpsons will realize the truth…Don’t worry, in the end, Bashir’s dad isn’t a terrorist…he’s a demolition man. Simpsons…teaching good values.
