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 the tweet in question also talks about Palestinian independence, it's not talking about "internal jihad". It's talking about violence. And when it talks about "even if death", it's talking about being killed when engaged in violence, not about when engaged in peaceful resistance.
