Give the aliens our ticked off wives.
Within 24 hours the aliens will be begging us to take our wives back and they'll never bother us again.
Sounds like part of the solution, right on!
OTOH, what if them wifeys got a glimpse on their technology? ?? Teleporting wives, anyone? ??
My bet is they will confuse things, from the recon part of their operation (you guys assume that - while they have evoluted on the same chemical/biological base as we - they have the ame sociological view we take):
Let us assume for a moment you, as the alien commander, did proper recon about the species on our planet for the last decades, from outer space, so you were intercepting our electronic signals and got a visual with your teleporting recon satellites, what did they tell you?
- The dominating species on earth is fairly monotonous in its behaviours but somehow gets along really well, with the help of some parasites living in in a symbiotic relationship (parasites feed them and get free transport in return, also those symbionts are way ahead of your race regarding technology and waste themselves in relentless defense of their parent species), the dominating species is called "car" in one of the dominating symbionts local dialects. The "cars" themselves have a kind of strange language with a depth not yet fully recognized, most of it is turning around a version of "honk", and your linguists go crazy in trying to decipher the message code, your super-duper translators only come up with "honk" all the time... They correctly assume that the species language is way too sophisticated in its sublimity and light years ahead of their crude methods to decipher it.
- Some of those symbionts seem to be way ahead in their technology also. Your comms specialists have just captured some live footage on how they took out the last alien race that wanted to invade Earth and wretch it from the cars, to no avail:
- That is not all, even another sub species called "mice" somehow got the edge on anything your scientists can throw at them:
- Even religion down there is very complicated: While the mice prey to a god called "cheese", the other symbionts of the cars have their own shrine:
The purpose of this shrine is not fully clear at the time of the invasion, but from following the messages that it sends from their god, it seems that the parasites pray to an entity that is fairly cruel and invincible (or two? A multi-god religion?), your sociologists are tying to make sense, maybe a mating ritual?:
- The cars themselves are also very dangerous, at least this is the conlusion your scientists made from the footage, as an example they show you one with its personal symbiont:
- Last, from your scientists analysis it becomes quite clear that Earth is well integrated in the Glactical Club of Outstanding Species (which your race, for some reason hasen´t been even able to contact yet) and can take care of anything that comes to them, they have a ministery for alien contacts and we can count on that they will have allies that are way more powerful thatn we can even dream of:
In total, your military, sociological and political specialists will probably strongly recommend you leave this aggressive species and their planet alone and fund ways to make yourself invisible in the galaxy hence they might have the idea of one day invading you...
Alien Invasion? Not probable. Q.E.D.
