Hoax admitted:

This account is an hoax created by italian journalist Tomasso De Benedetti

Still, the account has a great list of media and government Twitter accounts it follows.

Twitter is so compromised by fake accounts it will become useless in the future.

Twitter has a web crawler that tips others, as directed by the person setting up the bogus account to link in, monkey see, monkey do.

Twitter isn’t news, neither are blogs, I never post from either until I can verify an independent second source.

Debka is another iffy source that we all are careful with.
