The Palestinian group Hamas lashed out at Twitter on Friday, after the social media giant allegedly closed a number of its accounts.
The party's military wing, the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades, said its English and Arabic-language accounts had been closed for the third time in two weeks.
One of the closed accounts had more than 140,000 followers, it said in a statement.
Hamas is designated a terrorist organisation by the European Union and many Western nations.
Al-Qassam accused Twitter of showing a "clear bias to the Israeli occupation where it should (adopt a) neutral position toward both sides."
It said that Israeli officials were allowed to encourage "racism, extremism and terrorism" on the site, and called on the company to reopen the accounts.
Just for fun, here is one of Hamas' socially responsible videos, along with a couple of screen shots showing the translation.
