US
Senator Marco Rubio has posted a picture of the brutal murder of late
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in a less-than-subtle threat to
Venezuela’s Maduro. Twitter blasted Rubio as a manic warmonger…
who has extremely poor taste.
The two
pictures –one showing Gaddafi while still in power, the other
showing the Libyan leader being tortured minutes before his brutal
murder– were posted by Sen. Rubio (R-FL) on Twitter without any
caption. Yet, given his open calls for an armed insurrection in the
Latin American country to depose President Nicolas Maduro, the
message was clear.
Because nothing says human rights like gloating over a human being getting sodomized to death with a bayonet.— WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) February 24, 2019
Openly
threatening a head of a foreign country with a brutal death at the
hands of US-propped militants was, apparently, just a tiny bit off:
while a few Twitteratti supported Rubio's vision of Maduro's demise,
the majority blasted the senator over an extreme lack of taste or
decency.
The Venezuelan opposition's most ardent cheerleader is a bloodthristy crackpot. For most of the peoples of the world this pic represents the destruction of a nation, slave auctions, civil war. For Rubio it's a gloating message 2 Venezuela. Toe the line or we'll do this to you too pic.twitter.com/hi3O0Cpqza— Lizzie Phelan (@LizziePhelan) February 24, 2019
.@marcorubio horrifically tweets images of revolutionary leader Muammar Gaddafi’s brutal execution at hands of US-backed jihadis in Libya just one day after the US failed to invade VZ under the pretext of humanitarian aid.— Anya Parampil (@anyaparampil) February 24, 2019

Some
argued that any account spewing warmongering propaganda at such a
rate would likely be suspended – if it did not belong to a US
Senator, of course. “Marco Rubio just posted a violent, graphic
death threat. If any of the rest of us posted this, we'd be suspended
for it,” journalist Bill Palmer tweeted.

Marco Rubio's feed has become like a manic, paranoid, regime-change-demanding bot account. Would probably be investigated for suspicious activity by the Twitter authorities if he was not a US Senator pic.twitter.com/sTFfh7QQpZ— Michael Tracey (@mtracey) February 24, 2019
Many
noted that Libya is not the best example of the US bringing its
democracy overseas, but arguably the worst one. With the slave trade
there on the rise, the country is effectively fractured into several
warring statelets, with gangs of armed ‘democrats’ fighting for
control.
NATO worked with al-Qaeda-aligned extremists to overthrow the once prosperous, oil-rich nation of Libya and turn it into a failed state with open-air slave markets.— Ben Norton (@BenjaminNorton) February 24, 2019
Imperialist sadist Rubio is now threatening Venezuela with the same death and destruction.https://t.co/JIMW7zWOXk
Marco Rubio just posted photos of Gaddafi being lynched in an open death threat to Maduro. Libya is now a slave state thanks to US. Fuck you Marco, you’re a deranged piece of shit who should immediately resign https://t.co/h0hfseEKJl— Abby Martin (@AbbyMartin) February 24, 2019
Apart
from the pictures of Gaddafi, Rubio posted a similar split of Manuel
Noriega – the de facto ruler of Panama in the 1980s. Once a
valuable CIA asset who’d helped Washington in arming the Contras of
Nicaragua, Noriega was ousted during the US invasion of the country.
Needless to say, the invasion claimed many lives, while Noriega spent
the rest of his life in prison.
