You won't see me supporting Meta very often, but they have the right (and should have the right) to moderate content and remove accounts that violate its policies.
The Cradle has a long history of spreading verifiably false disinformation, promoting anti-Semitic tropes and conspiracy theories, and encouraging violence against civilians.
They may have the right to say false and hateful things, but Meta has no obligation to amplify them.
There is evidence that Meta enforce their moderation policies differently depending on the viewpoint at issue. Meta appears to take a harsher approach toward supporters of Palestinians who violate their "Community Standards" than toward supporters of Israel who do the same thing.
With that apparent bias acknowledged, Meta is still well within their rights to keep this particular garbage off their platform.
