I've been thinking about this a lot lately.

Lol, i can just imagine the left arguing the opposite, blaming it all on bush. rofl.The Geneva conventions would not apply to non-humans.
K.I.L.E.R said:I made some additions to the asusmptions.
Read the very first paragraph again.
K.I.L.E.R said:You have to realise these are my assumptions and do not represent fact in any way.
I'm working under assumptions they don't look like us, only similar.
I will update my current analysis into a full blow out document spanning maybe 30-50 pages on things such as torture under the climate, what kind of climate people will be operating under and so forth.

K.I.L.E.R said:Not necessarily.
This discussion is proving fruitful for ideas of which I could discuss.
Depending on the kind of race the aliens would be their reactions to us will determine their course of action.
If they are fighting to expand their domain or even to mine resources they wouldn't want to destroy our planet and given their vulnerabilities would be the similar to ours(physiologically).
In such a case(which I'm assuming is the case) they would not want to risk using chemical or biological weapons that would cause potential harm to the environment or themselves.
They would have to attack us in such a way that we could not move to desperate measures such as nuclear weapons.
jvd said:Well any race that can travel millions of light years to us will be able to get around our weapons very easily and will have most likely already invented nukes and ways to stop them or shield themselves from them . Also most likely a way to clean up and restore worlds .
wireframe said:They would take what they want and we'd have no means of stopping them.
K.I.L.E.R said:We can also adept to them as well.
Which brings me back to the original question.
Why take unnecessary risks?
So, did you go with my advice above and hand in a paper with the solution:Alstrong said:Sorry to interject, but I thought it was funny. This was on our assignment (paraphrased):
Aliens are invading the Earth and use 3um to 10um lasers. Design plasma shields to protect our tanks using Xenon gas etc etc more plasma physics stuff.
jvd said:You think we can some how keep up with a race of beings that are hundreds of years ahead of us in tech ?
I highly doubt it . It be like a cave man trying to fight a stealth bomber
