Subject Matter in South Park - Saddam Hussein, 9/11, The War On Terror, and The Iraq War

Saddam Hussein, 9/11, The War On Terror, and The Iraq War

• In Terrance and Phillip in Not Without My Anus and onward, Saddam tries to take over Canada, becomes Satan's lover in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, in future episodes is caught trying to manufacture weapons of mass destruction in Heaven, and is eventually captured in "It's Christmas in Canada" (after the real life one was captured in Iraq).
• The U.S. invasion of Afghanistan and September 11 attacks are used as backgrounds for "Osama bin Laden Has Farty Pants".
• The Iraq War is also premised or discussed in "Red Sleigh Down".
• In "I'm a Little Bit Country", war protesters are portrayed as needing the war supporters so that the United States would not become weak and unable to defend itself from attack, while war supporters are shown as needing the war protesters so the U.S. would not seem like a power hungry or tyrannical government. The theory was discovered by Cartman (in a flashback) to have originated from the founding fathers, who referred to it as "having your cake and eating it too".
• "Mystery of the Urinal Deuce" discusses and parodies many of the 9/11 conspiracy theories, which are showed as being created by the government in an effort to appear to have power over the events.
