unlawful rebellion.

Can you post the article and section of the Constitution regarding secession of a state(s)?

Here we go.

There is no provision for secession, so the attempt to do so was unlawful.

unlawful rebellion.

It's always entertaining to introduce the "Proclamation of Rebellion" which echoes so much of the reasoning and rhetoric of the Lincoln administration- it is of course the 1775 message by King George to Parliament, urging them to put a quick end to the traitorous rebels seeking to secede from the Empire.
