There are limits to freedom of speech. Hate speech or promoting hate is not protected. Granted, I have never read the Taliban's tweets, but I have read and heard other gems they have produced. I am not giving a legal opinion, but as a matter of decency I agree with Lieberman on this one. Taking away the Taliban's Twitter will not end the terrorism, but it also will NOT create more terrorism. If Twitter were owned by me I would shut down the account. Let the Taliban take me to court of they have a problem with it.
