"I know this a conversation between you and Lightning, but I can't help but out that plan would fail in practice."

Practice is no replacement for actually trying the tactic out.

"While you are figuring out the reason behind the attacks, the aliens are still attacking and people are still dying."

I am not going to be figuring out the reason behind the attacks.

I am going to be negotiating the aliens themselves, face to face.

"Should they just die so you can take your sweet time playing diplomat?"

First of all, I would not take my "sweet time" playing diplomat.

There will always be deaths in skirmishes.

And obtaining ceasefire/peace from the negotiation is a possiblity.

If not, well then now we're justified in going to war.
