Don't forget corvids! Eurasian magpies are frighteningly smart. And not only that, we've actually discovered that the mechanisms behind their intelligence are very similar to our own, on a neuronal level.

I think perhaps it would be them that discovered us and they would have done so already. More likely as time goes on they are lower on scale than us. On a lighter note; if more advanced then Democrats will want to reenter space race to tax them.

Just think Europeans landing on the coast line of the east coast of the US, and think what happen to the natives of the land the Europeans landed on.
So in your view, conquering is the only goal?

All done in very obscure terms as befitting a top secret 'black' project that was a closely guarded at that time.
The B-2 was buried in top secrecy until the aircraft was outed shortly before it went to action during the Iraq War. It had been used in combat for the first time in Serbia in 1999, but it's use remained secret, but it's crews still were issued unit patches.

Pretty spooky and bloodthirsty at the same time. Intimidation is a big part of military might, and those patches often have intimidating images and mottos.

Yea....because only Europeans were expansionists.

Much "ethnic cleansing" is going on right now as we speak in Africa and the Middle East.

It depends. The survival of our species would be paramount to "feeling" for them.
