The idea of an alien "nation-state" makes an unscientific assumption that they will organize like human beings do. What if they are a single organism with semi-independent drones, or a totally anarchy with every little green man for himself? --<font style="background: #bb0000" face="verdana" color="#FFFFFF">[[User:Lambchop|<font color="yellow"><strong>Ruby</strong></font>]] </font> 12:31, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

:Nothing like that figures in, for example, former President [[Jimmy Carter|Carter]]'s speculations. And I doubt that an anarchy could, or would even want to, achieve anything like what [[Francis Crick]] played around with back in 1973, let alone the kind of full-blown invasion force illustrated, say, in ''The War of the Worlds'' or the ''V'' series of [[television]] projects.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 13:05, 16 April 2007 (EDT)
