The White House twitter account has issued a response: https://twitter.com/WhiteHouse/status/1266367168603721728?s=...

This* Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence. However, @Twitter has determined that it will allow terrorists, dictators, and foreign propagandists to abuse its platform.

*Referring to an attached picture of a Khamenei tweet about Palestine

Where's the violence though? Or are they applying the stereotypical western misunderstanding of jihad = violence/terrorism?

When people risk being killed during a jihad, it kinda implies that a text does not refer to a greater jihad aimed at improving one's soul.
