Twitter, Facebook, Libya, Illegal Combatants and Acts of War

With the rush to foment revolutions via Facebook and Twitter in North African nations the ramifications of the globalization of sedition, civil wars joined by anonymous posters and several other questions have not been sufficiently addressed for public clarification.

Revolutionaries may conspire to revolt against a government without even forming a guerrilla army then appeal to the International community to borrow sufficient military services to bring off their revolt by wire desire. Secretary Gates probably rightly said that it would be an act of war to force a NO Fly zone over Libya that the rebels have asked for. It would also bring the United States into a troublesome legal and moral situation regarding its own right to try illegal combatants especially when they are snared from foreign nations not at war with the U.S.A. such as Afghanistan of 2001-2011.

France has recognized the Libyan Revolutionary Government diplomatically, and may thus provide weapons and foreign legion military assistance if asked with a more or less legal or logical basis. Or alternatively, must one recognize the recognition of a revolutionary government as an international crime?

One wonders what sort of crimes and protocols might be addressed by International Convention to classify the Internet, global structuring of terrorist, seditious and civil war revolutionary activity. Would it include those offering just moral support, or must they provide some sort of material assistance to actual casualty causing events?

Would foes of the United States or NATO receive different legal justice than those seeking support from the United States or European Countries in overthrowing any given nation?

There are many existential questions regarding the right-to-revolt and the right-to-war that have developed from Twitheads and Faces potential awaiting booking by Danos of jurisprudence. Giant Internet waves of populism or sponsored populism from Chicago to Cairo and Tripoli or even Teheran may enact militancy that crosses the boundaries of politics throwing perplexing legal questions into the fan of nationalism. The moral right may be a smirking confidence some elitists hold, yet it seems that like NPR as a perceived perpetrator of biased propaganda manipulating public opinion, the ability to shape and compel opinion may become a mob rule way of life instead of plain and simple equal justice for all.
