The Twitter and YouTube accounts of the United States Central Command which coordinates US military forces in 20 different countries including the middle east, has been hacked by a group claiming to be ISIS.

After a half hour of being attacked, the Centcom Twitter page was taken down.
As of 1:20 PM the Centcom YouTube account is sill displaying an ISIS masthead and ISIS videos
.@CENTCOM response: We can confirm that our twitter account was “compromised. CENTCOM is taking appropriate measures to address the matter.”
