The Sun is in Sagittarius. Now, if aliens do invade our World to conquer it, their conquest will likely be in December as they will come from the center of the Galaxy (that's where most of the stars are) and will use the Sun to hide their approach, until it is too late for us to do anything about it.
any alien that can come here from the inner reaches of the galaxy don’t need to hide behind anything, they came come with their dong hanging out in our full view all the way and there is absolutely nothing we can do about it.
Unlike what is insinuated by reams of ridiculous military sci-fi novels in which space marines somehow even the odds, if any alien has the ability to come here, then our doom is appointed the moment they formulate the intention to eradicate us.
They don't need to, but they would...because, as you note, they're just that good at shit. I do, though, think that you're ignoring plenty of great examples where a technologically superior enemy gets absolutely trounced by primitives. One hopes, for the alien invaders sake, that they don't forget similar lessons their own history might have imparted. I bet you could suddenly remember them if I said "the united states"....

Bring it ET, earth goes hard - there's nothing left on this rock without a mound of wrecked bodies beneath it.
