That's not entirely true.

we have no knowledge,resources,artifacts or anything of use to an advanced ET species.
within 50 years earth will have matter replicators,ET would have advance matter replication techniques,they can create anything they want without the need for invasion!.
they are far more interested in things like
en.wikipedia.org...
en.wikipedia.org...
en.wikipedia.org...
hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu...

and so on.

I would add a further note of concern by observing that many "UFOs" depicted in artwork through the last 1,000+ years are placed in works of a religious nature. This could suggest both or one of the following: A) They have a hand in religions to some degree, perhaps in their formation and the events behind them, and/or B) We associate, as is typical of our species, all awe-inspiring and unexplainable phenomena with something spiritual in nature.
A site with some examples: www.ufoartwork.com...
This anology could also be placed further back in history when Cortez made a godlike appearance to the Aztecs and also when the Europeans came to the Americas and almost wiped out the Indian Nations.

If there are aliens flitting through every once in a while, I think our seeing them is more of an accident than an intention, as they go about their own agenda.
Consider WWII in the South Pacific. Many very backward groups would have seen giant steel ships of a style and design they couldn't match, passing at odd intervals on an ocean they could only venture a short ways from land on.
Sometimes these ships might stop and send a party ashore to look for something, or to gather information. Some of these shore parties may have been nice and friendly, others harsh and demanding. Some may have tried to explain to the natives what they were doing, but telling some near stone age islander that you're from New York/America or Nagisaki/Japan would be meaningless. And knowing soldiers, it would have been the hight of humor to spin a few tall tales to see if the natives could be sold a bill of goods.
Because these WWII sailors had a need to pass through an area didn't mean that the place was worth fighting over, or that these sailors gave a flip for the people there, one way or another. By the same token, if it developed that the island was needed for a supply base or a harbor, they just moved in and took it over.
Now I'm NOT saying we're on the edge of some galactic war zone, though we could be. The fact is, just like those islanders, we don't have a clue what is going on or why, and we're so underdeveloped that we likely couldn't understand an explanation anyway. How would a GI explain a radio to somebody that thought beating a drum to send a message was the hight of technology?
Now the example of the WWII forces and the islanders have to be stretched a long ways as far as motive and understanding of each other goes when we think of humans and ETs simply because the thought process and motives will be a thousand times more separated with "us and them" than between any two groups of humans.
Edit to add: And I'm sure many a witch doctor told his tribe how all this had been foretold in some age old prophesy, and it was the coming of the gods.

I sincerely hope this doesn't happen for the sake of humanity.

its an absolute certaintity that earth is going to be "invaded" from outer space in the not to distant future and for the purpose of taking us over and executing millions----maybe even a billion of war mongers---------to restore law and order to this earth and bring an end to the nwo.the biblical books of zechariah and revelation that are poo pooed by the majority as being ridiculous superstition are the reality of whats coming upon the earth-----------to help us-------but the nwo will convince most of us to fight for the nwo against our helpers.too bad----resistence is futile--------we will be assimilated.
If it comes to that, this means we should prepare ourselves even more don't you think??

I doubt we'd be invaded...We would have already for sure...within the last 50 years we've developed nukes so now I imagine they'd want to do no such thing considering that we're fighting ourselves and destroying our own enviroment- maybe they'll wait to we kill each other and then come and take over when no-ones left.
For millenia it seems ET's have come here for earthwoman and most probably still are it, Must be the beautiful and inteligent girls we got here Text

i'd suggest "ET" never left... afterall we were made in their image, weren't we? perhaps those entrusted to keep the truths and timelines know something that they haven't shared? why would other alien races invade? maybe for the gold we've been mining and hording on behalf of the "gods" for thousands of years... would an alien race travel billions of light years to get here for some gold? hard to say, but imagine if you will our solar system moving through the galaxy which in turn moves through the universe... every certain number of years we return to the same place in the circle, perhaps just close enough for a "cost efficient" leap from planet to planet... they may also come for the women! afterall, the last bunch of "aliens" seemed to like them well enough...
Hello and thank you for posting.

All the back story you need to understand what's going on with the "alien war" is found in "The Book of Enoch".
The united states will not be invaded, nor really any other nation. The repitilains need be invited in, they don't have the technology to invade. The Grey aliens are not looking to invade.
