The final segment of the upcoming Simpsons “Treehouse of Horror” episode on November 5 will take a few not-so-subtle shots at the current conflict in Iraq as aliens Kang and Kodos (who are featured in every “Treehouse of Horror”) attack Springfield before the humans can get their hands on “weapons of mass disintegration”. The connection to the Iraq war is made obvious, and there’s even a line at the end in which a character evokes the actual Iraq debacle.
