Lemme guess, you don't think there is any life out there? In the incomprehensible expanse of trillions upon trillions of stars and planets, we are the only life.
Oh that's right, you think god made us. And we are speshial.

Don't hold your breath. Pretty sure interstellar space exploration is not yet considered a realistic possibility.
Why on earth would a species sufficiently advanced to travel the distance involved bother with such a primitive and aggressive species as homo sapiens? EG we allow millions of our fellows to die from starvation and diseases and have not yet learned to stop killing each other en masse.

I think there is probability of 1 . However, I'm unable to make a truth claim, because probability of 1 is not proof.

Well one day in the far future we all presumable lose that nationality thing and be from Earth as Humans. I am not holding my breath.

At this point, I find it more likely that we'll be visiting primitive aliens in about two thousand more years or so.
However, if aliens advanced enough to travel from outside our solar system to Earth did land on Earth, I'm pretty sure the Turks wouldn't have much of a chance at stopping them.

There is no such world, friend.
It's rather too hypothetical to assume that we will face aliens as a "single" world country.
And I'm fairly certain that the whole nationality thing exists in any aliens that might have a similar society to ours.

Odds are that either it'll take centuries before they'll intercept our signals, or that they've been traveling incognito from the beginning and we've never noticed, probably through asteroids. Needless to say, the former is the more likely possibilities.
