As President Barack Obama addressed the nation regarding national cyber security efforts, hackers claiming to represent the Islamic State (IS) took over the Twitter account of the Pentagon division in charge of the Middle East.

Hackers with the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, posted links on U.S. Central Command’s official Twitter page to what it claimed was “confidential data from your mobile devices.”

“ISIS is already here, we are in your PCs, in each military base. With Allah’s permission we are in CENTCOM now,” said one tweet sent from CENTCOM’s account.

[justa-hairyape]

Well now we now why Obama was not sent to France. The US government can no longer protect him. Let alone our military.

would tell everyone a scary story (involved moslems) that came to be wrapped up in (accidentially) prior to 9/11 but now is not the time. Police and N.C. Senator Jesse Helms became involved to allow all to know was before 9/11 ... When 9/11 came, I cried, but was not surprised. Note ... am not LE
