Bart befriends a Muslim boy and invites him and his parents to dinner, only for Homer's paranoia to get the better of him, but when Homer goes over to their house to apologize, he sees the father with sticks of TNT and thinks he's going to blow up Springfield Mall; Lisa gets a Mapple Mypod - and a bill for over 1200 downloaded songs at 99 cents each

i really got upset when HOMER thought that muslims are terrorists and this is a serious stereotype but i forgive HOMER and FOX and i hope they would reduce or wouldn't insult arabs and muslims next time they make an epasode about this kind of topic. THANK YOU

Hello every1, I registered to say this...
I didnt get offended by this episode "2007 Mypods and Boomsticks" and it actually made me laugth! The only part i got abset or offended was where homer visited the muslim famelly and said some stupid things about islam Like Allan, which he was corrected by the women to Allah and he also said il look it up on Qur-an in a disrespectful way. But i forgive him for that cose we all know what an idiot he is... Right? AHHAHAHAH, how can i get abset at him. He is Racist and we LOVE HIM!!!!

dear friends,
well i hav read all the post bout Islam this n that n all n there have been alot of real emotional guys who didnt want to hear anything bad bout islam.
wat im trying to say is, that things are not wat they seem.wat a couple of extremist do doesn't mean that the whole nation is the same way.believe me, when u see ur family die rite infront of ur eyes, or see that ur ppl r not given the rites, u will raise ur voice against anything that stands against u. this is wat the Naziz did in WWII n this is wats called human nature.
all i want the ppl, who dislike islam or say bad stuff about it,well plz, its my humble request that u judge us by not the extremists, but actually by the ppl who live a daily life as urs :)
try visiting the gulf countries or other muslim nations, the cultures may b different or the inaccessibility of resources would b present but i bet on it that there will b an exact same child, whose got the same character as u, present before u except that child will hav the same view of world peace n prosperity, but the way he sees life after all the manslaughter of his fellows, he will hav a different reactions to different situations.
sorry fer the loooonnnng speech ppl but plz don't think bad of the muslim nation try assessing it in the normal day to day life :) thnk u all :)

i dont think that this episode is racist. i mean in the end the conclusion is that homer was wrong, so actually the episode says how stupid the prejudices against muslims are. and plus i am german and i dont feel offended when the simpsons make fun of all germans as nazis! its just a cartoon, and actually if matt groening offends anyone then himself as an american, because most often the simpsons make fun of the american way, so actually all episodes would be "racist"!

I disagree with both zerter and jls, I disagree with zerter because people are making this a huge deal-many of these people are actiong under ignorance. There is ignorance in both sides. Zerter's side because these people see these comments posted and they sa "oh look! an argument.. I like to argue!" so they post a comment and ramble on and on about how this is not racist. On the other hand people like jls are like "you're racist everyones out to get me, this is a harsh world, i should fight!" and they get all aggresive and think" im brilliant! i did the right thing!" Much of this racism is fueled by ignorance. If you take the time to learn about the religeon you would think it is a lot like yours. So before you go ahead and challenge everybody have something to fall back on: knowledge.

Iam big fan of simpsons and I love this episode.Iam muslim and i dont c dis episode as racist.Most Americans believe what thier media tells them.In dis episode matt just showed ignorance of Holmer and normal americans towards other religion.After Sept. 11, Americans have rushed to educate themselves about Islam, the Middle East and foreign affairs.According to Orville Schell Americans are ever more involved in the world and ever less knowledgeable about it.It's the bosses at U.S media companies who deserve the blame.

The simpsons are protraying what the americans really think of muslims...as terrorists, and this episode just teaches all those who judge muslims to think again as muslims are genuine nyc people.
