US Central Command Twitter feed hacked by ISIS supporters
CNBC ^ | 1-12-2014 | Everett Rosenfeld

Posted on 01/12/2015 10:10:23 AM PST by tcrlaf

The Twitter account for U.S. Central Command was apparently hacked on Monday, with pro-ISIS messages plastering the account's profile.

The first message was posted at 12:29 p.m. ET, with the words "AMERICAN SOLDIERS, WE ARE COMING, WATCH YOUR BACK. ISIS." and the hashtag "#CyberCaliphate."

The profile's image was replaced with a photo that includes the text "i love you isis." Just before 1 p.m. ET profile and banner images were reverted to their default

This has a funny smell.

Sort of like a low-wattage Reichstag fire smell.

The head of our NSA is an evil Muslim. It is the anti-American marxists that infest our government that provided all the data to their buddies in ISIS.

I pray that the next President berates islam on a daily basis and that he/she works to end completely ALL immigration by any muslim.

My guess is that a shadowy group WITHIN our gov't has hacked CENTCOM and published General's addresses.

It is NOT a shadowy group. It is an unspoken rule that Obama and his gang of Marxists push on a daily basis, all ways to weaken and turn America into a third world sewer.

The Marxist head of the NSA is probably turning over vast quantities of data to ISIS.

"What difference does it make?"



"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men.
He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist.
A murderer is less to be feared."

-- Marcus Tullius Cicero


"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
"
President Ronald Reagan

Yep. So Josh Earnest just said, this highlights what Obama has been concerned about with his cyber security plan. (Paraphrasing)

Everything Obama has ever done makes sense when you realize that he is a foreign enemy combatant illegally placed into office by a communist-Islamist alliance seeking to destroy America and Israel and institute worldwide sharia.

Probably another NSA project, similar to the Sony "attack". Building support for Obama's big Internet takeover.

They should hack the EBT computers if they really want to rally the troops in favor of his plan.
