Just because something foreign to you has displayed a God-like power doesn't mean you would lose all perceptions of reality and revolve your actions around appeasing that "God".
Well the commanders here aren't thinking rationally either.

They've been shown to only ever considering two things:
-Cool mecha, let's rob him! ie. blond guy
-You don't exist, go away! The captain with his refusal to communicate directly, when Ledo first communicated the first thing he asked for was to speak with the one in charge. The officers seem to take insult at having to face Ledo.
