That was the Robotech ending.

Oh ok, so why don't you tell me what humanity, stripped of its military and much of its resources, should do against a race that
outnumbers you by a huge margin? And one with
roflstompyouharhar fleet hovering above your head?

But that was not a battle, just segregation, and it was necessary in order to maintain their military capacity.

Uh, there
were no forces to back him up anymore. The Zentradi fleet above Earth orbit had aligned itself with UN SPACY and no longer hostile to Earth. Quamzin, who did not wish to align with the UN SPACY or shot by his superior simply chose the third way out, that is, to go into hiding. Not surprisingly, his stubborn personality ensured both sides to take him as a rogue. With little option left for him, Quamzin gathered all who could not adapt to life on Earth in a last ditch effort to preserve what they believed as the pride of Zentradi. That is, to fight & die in battle.
But Global lived, and initiated a sequence of events that would give us further Macross series.

Never happened in the main series, my dear.

ROFL.
For your information, they
did scan the planet, and found nothing. However, whether they did or did not scan is almost irrelevant. The SDF was
never in a militarily advantageous position. Ever. Have you any idea how disgustingly easy it was for a mere fraction of the main Zentradi fleet to wipe out humanity? If not for the fact that the Zentradi wanted something, and were basically dicking around for 27 episode of the show, there was no way in hell for humanity to survive as long as it did.

You are confused again. In the romance thread, we were discussing the mindset of the denizens of Frontier, and their collective anger toward the Vajra, not because I believe wiping them out that was a viable option, because it wasn't. Humanity made that mistake in the first Space War, it was smart for them
not to repeat that same mistake in the Vajra war. These critters possibly outnumber even the Zentradi by a huge margin, and individually more powerful, I don't think
wiping them out can be achieved.
Moreover, if you look from a different point of view, both the Vajra and Zentradi left humanity with very little choice but peace.

And her way of conducting it was bad. Do you get it? You can repeat this in a variety of ways, but my answer will always be the same: Her intends were good, her way of achieving it was bad.

Right, because Alto was a Vajra expert.

Right, just because

Bullshit. You posted this:
