“The Frog and the Scorpion.”

Description

2012 “The Frog and the Scorpion.” Syndicated colored cartoon by Mike Keefe appearing in the Omaha World-Herald’s opinion page on September 10, 2012. Personal find.

The three panels of the cartoon tell the traditional fable well. A good trip among supposed friends gets interrupted when the scorpion suddenly kills the frog. Why? “That’s my nature.” So Afghanistan is killing the country (USA) that was bringing it to supposed safety.
