I find it to a pretty simple idea, but through my time in the forums I haven't seen it mentioned...everyone seems to be on the premonition that the civil war is going to be as simple as elites, hunters and grunts vs the rest. I personally get the idea that the convenant has been in existence for quite some time, and alot of them would have loyalty to their commander regardless of race (though not all). I dont even see it as a civil war, but more as a revolution started by the arbiter, and depending on how fast he can spread his word and gain followers, it could either be seen as a quickly squashed rebellion by the rest of the covenant, or break out into a very complicated (in regards to races), all out war.
All these *theories* on which of the two convenant forces is on earth, be it the elite-hunter-grunt forces or its counterpart, are based on a lot on ifs and maybes. Personally, until more information on the matter is revealed by bungie, there is no where close to enough factual information to ascertain the situation of the conflict within the convenant.
