How can we fight back during an alien invasion? (part 3)


Disguise yourself as one of them. Why not, they do it to us all the time! (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, V, Falling Skies, etc.) The ol' Trojan Horse play seems to work more often than you'd think. If we could just get inside that mother-ship and deliver a computer virus through a mac laptop, we might have a chance to bring down all their shields and infect all their computers (Independence Day). Or, maybe we could secretly gain audience with the alien overlord posing as somebody else, only to blow them up with a small nuke we smuggled in with us. We could join them, pretending to support their cause, and gain valuable information on exploitable weaknesses. Of course, there is always the risk that we might end up sympathizing with them—we've seen that happen on both sides (Avatar, V).
