FEMA Phones Hacked

Some electronic jihadi hacked the FEMA voice mail system to make thousands of calls - probably to al Qaeda affiliates in the Middle East and South Asia - on our nickle. This is a scandal of earth-shaking proportions. The head of FEMA and SECDHS ought to be roasted, but good, over this breach of COMSEC because of some alleged contractor software glitch. The DHSCOMSEC team didn't obviously vet the system contractor nor test it to determine if it was bullet proof. If this could happen at FEMA/DHS then it tells me our federal government COMSEC is capable of being breached, and unless encrypted, calls and traffic monitored. I guess only the Israelis and SKYPE know how to  provide COMSEC. Embarrassing doesn't even come close to describe how this could occur and what the ramifications are. Is this a prelude to a 9/11 anniversary event?
