Update:
CENTCOM’s Twitter account’s been suspended for now:
Hey! They’re making progress!
Well, kinda. Not really. CENTCOM’s YouTube page was also hacked and is still apparently compromised:
Centcom Youtube is still up/defaced. Sigh.

Editor’s note: The title has been amended to reflect that CENTCOM’s Twitter account — not CENTCOM itself — was hacked. We apologize for any confusion.
