It would be naive to believe that all of humanity would band together, under any circumstances.
I do not think that the Insurrectionists political ideology would be powerful enough to keep Humanity divided after 23 billion people where murdered by an external threat that was beyond Human control. That is quite small minded. People often forget that the biggest dividers between Humanity are caused by religion and nationalism, and not just that "Human nature for the hell of it" response that most people give. In 500 years do you really see them still being so influential?
Look at Europe 1000 years ago, and then compare it to today. Wars are non-existent now between the European countries, and Europe was one of the most bloody battle arenas in the world. The world is far more rational than it was even 100 years ago, and continues to develop so.
People would still want their independance, regardless of what has happened. I'm not saying that it is human nature, just simple mathamatics; not everyone will band together, it's pretty impossible. I'm not looking to our past for this reasoning, but, rather, what has happened in the "future".
Yeah, but they'd be stupid to start fighting the UNSC and spending what little resources they have.
