* ''[[wikipedia:Invasion: Earth (TV series)|Invasion Earth]]'' (1998) had the military destroying a massive alien...thing that appeared, only for another one to appear in its place. It was theorised that an infinite number of these aliens were stacked up in alternate realities, waiting to replace each one that's destroyed. Nevertheless the general in charge gives a defiant speech about how they're going to nuke each one that appears, no matter how many, because the fate of the human race is at stake. The series ends without us finding out whether these "all or nothing" tactics are effective.
** Basically the aliens want to turn all life on Earth and everywhere else into [[Organic Technology]] slaves. Most races are pacifists and kill themselves rather than be used. Humans being [[Humanity Is Superior|awesome]] [[Humans Are Bastards|bastards]] decide to do as much damage to the aliens as possible and exterminate all life on Earth in the process out of spite.
