You have put the finger on .
- Information Warfare (IW)
- Information Operation (IO)
- Information Conflicts (IC)
- Tactical IO, IW
- Strategic IO, IW
- Cyber War
- Cyber Conflict
- Cyber Graffiti
  And the list is much longer....

Each country has their own definition (US, Japan, Australia, Israel, Canada,
China, Iraq, Russia....) each national organization have their own
definition, each of research institute have their own definitions, etc.,
etc,. . I'm looking for long time for clear and cut definitions (2-10 lines)
for the above terms.
You have put the finger on .

options:
A: we all keep discuss those issue and terminology over e-mails and over few
annual conferences.
B: may be we all getting nearby to the establishment of the World
Information Warfare Organization (NGO). If naturalist
    established the World Ducks Organization, why we can't?
