Twitter permanently banned an account believed to be linked to Iran's supreme leader Friday after it posted a threatening image that included former President Donald Trump.

The account, @khamenei_site, was linked to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's website, The Associated Press reported. And the same account had previously posted portions of Khamenei's speeches and official content. However, a Twitter spokesperson told the AP that the account was fake, without elaborating on how it determined that.

The image that resulted in the ban, Trump playing golf in the shadow of what appears to be an aircraft, is captioned "Revenge is certain," written in Farsi.

The same image can be found on Khamenei's English website. Below the picture is a quote from Khamenei from last month: "Soleimani's murderers and those who ordered his murder must face revenge. ... Both the murderers and those who ordered it should know that revenge may come at any time."
If your attitudes on Jews are genocidal, that says a lot.
