The board of Facebook consists of Americans. They are helping a hostile foreign power ( Facebook).

Help me out. How does that imply war?

Getting back to your original posting:

First of all, my whole posting was tongue-in-cheek, which everyone else seems to have gotten.

Anyhow, does it makes sense that "A formal declaration of war" has somewhat more legal force than "An Atlantic headline writer declaring them a hostile foreign power" ?

Thanks for explaining. Today was my day to not get a joke on the internet :)
