(National Geographic video) "When Aliens Attack"

http://youtu.be/-lj2afg31oU (1 hour, 32 minutes).
 
When Aliens attack,do we have a chance on victory,or whill we be exterminated ?
This documentary gives the facts what will happen,millitary experts gives us there vieuw on a plausible alien invasion.
 
 
Libertarians will hate this.  It discusses such evil ideas as working together, submitting to a higher cause, and self-sacrifice in altruism.
 
 
 
MY COMMENT:
Good points in this, but there are flaws in using Mujahadeen comparisons. Basically, in that and similar situations in our recent history, there has been a restraining force acting against the invading force using their full strength. In the case of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, it was America. and its nukes. This kept the Soviets from simply nuking their way to victory.
 
In an alien invasion, we can't count on the Venusians acting to restrain the Martians.
 
The comparison to the Iraq War is also flawed because much of the restraint was applied by a seditious domestic American media and certain political movements. There is no guarantee that invading aliens will have such domestic disloyalty which we could exploit.
 
And finally, the video does not consider how humans will have to content with their own traitors. Libertarians will seek only personal survival, and might seek to collaborate. Leftists will see the invasion as good for destroying America (ditto libertarians). And conspiracy theorists won't believe it's real. Your Alex Jones types will be yelling "False flag!" even past the time they're knocked offline or off the air.
Humanity will need some cold-hearted disciplining of their own to survive.
