This article is an attempt to analyse the phenomenon of a network organization, whose establishment has been directly connected with the political situation in Libya since the middle of February 2011. The protests that took place in Libya were the result of successful (overthrow of the legal authorities) riots in Tunisia and Egypt. The riots were significantly and perhaps even decisively inspired and controlled from outside, with the use of a netwar technology, which is part of ‘soft power’ weapons. The supporters of the Libyan system, the people who sympathize with the direct democracy, in the manner of the Libyan Jamahiriya also use this weapon while leading information wars in defence of their axioms. A manifestation of this is undoubtedly a net ELAC, created significantly on the basis of MEDD-MCR (Movement for European Direct Democracy – Mouvement des Comites Revolutionnaires – Revolutionary Committees Movement). The analysis of ELAC net’s activity requires taking into consideration a few facts that distinguish it from activities of official government and non government organizations which possess much more financial, political and intelligence support. - On the one hand, it is a decentralized organization, on the other hand, it is based on a strictly centralized structure of the Party PCN (Parti Communautaire National-europeen- National-European Communitarian Party); - it is a grass-roots organization created on the basis of spontaneous reactions; - it is a non profit organization (its activity involves no bonus); - it is based on officially available web social portals such as facebook or twitter and websites. To keep the chronology of narrative and also to understand the essence of the phenomenon of ELAC it has been necessary to carry out an analysis of the activity of the political party PCN and the social-political movement MEDD-MCR in the context of their most important net ventures.

The world system, understood as one organism, from time to time experiences an attack by “microorganisms” interested in its annihilation or at least in its weakening. A few years ago, this role was played by the Islamic State, with the goal of fighting the rotten, hypocritical and injust international system. According to the Islamists, this system included all countries of the world, as well as Muslims who did not swear allegiance to the Caliph Baghdadi. The Islamic State was a state entity completely different from any other country in the world. It was not recognized by anyone, it was not a member of the United Nations, or any existing international organization. Even though, as a state, it was not recognized by anyone, Daesh was recognized by everyone as a terrorist organization that should be exemplarily and comprehensively annihilated. The ideology used by the Islamic State was Salafism as an apocalyptic response to the injustice and lie of the “system”. Poverty, the lack of a radical and comprehensive ideological alternative for people who are excluded, angry at the lack of perspectives, meaninglessness, double standards and hypocrisy have fueled the Islamists. Utopism for complete equality resembled the first Bolsheviks or early Christians, with the motto “there is no Greek or Jew”. The Islamic State, driven by Salafism, has thrown down the gauntlet to the world order, largely created by the West. This time the world system defeated the “microbes” that were attacking it. Its “guardians”: politicians, journalists, philosophers and religious leaders should, however, think deeply about the condition of the “immune system” for the future, re-evaluate some of the ways of functioning and the dominant norms that govern the system, because successive victories over successive “microbes” in changing civilisational conditions are not at all obvious.
