I think if there was a civil war it would be over so fast most would be wonder what the heck just happened.
And it not going to be fought by a bunch of country yokels with their 30-06s. Its going to be fought by geeks with laptops. Its going to be an digital and information war; Tweets are bullets, thumb drives are smart bombs. Look at Iran this year, the contested elections a bunch of students with camera phones turned the world's attention to their governments abuses. No matter how their government tried to shut them down they found a link to the outside world, and what they filmed became headline news. Second the Suxnet virus, a few lines of code potentially crippled a nuclear weapons program, imagine what something like that could do to a power grid or air traffic control system.
