Twitter finally suspended a fake account that was listed under Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s name 17 hours after it posted an image of drone targeting Trump-lookalike in revenge for US airstrike, and long after it was first reported on.
The photo was taken from an overhead view which tossed up immediate connotations of drone strikes, the likes of which was used to kill General Soleimani on January 3 last year.
The tweet roughly translated to: ‘Revenge is inevitable. Soleimani’s killer and the one who ordered Soleimani’s murder must take revenge.’ It that it was possible ‘at any time.’ :D:D:D
