This thread is kind of a branch off from the Allies/Inferno Spoiler thread.
It got me wondering, the Asgard would have knowledge of the wraith by now I would assume (through Hermiod, ancient database, plus they do have ships capable of intergalactic travel), what do you think would be the 'official' position of the Asgard regarding the Wraith? especially considering the fact that Atlantis (home of their former allies, the Alterrans/Ancients) is now occupied once more and under attack?
So far we are assuming Wraith only prey on humans, and as such do not need to worry about a threat to themselves, are the Asgard just choosing to ignore them? for a powerful race, the Asgard surely wouldn't just leave all humans to defend themselves...
what about, they think they've already helped enough by fitting the Prometheus with shields and weapons, and incorporating shield/beaming technology into the Deadalus? Again, I can't imagine that they think "here you go - now you deal with it"...unless they are trying to, in some weird way, observe the potential of the Tau'Ri...
or maybe, are the Wraith just too numerous for the Asgard to deal with? While the Wraith may not feed on the Asgard, surely they'd wipe them out quicksmart for taking sides with the Atlantean...perhaps the Asgard are too busy rebuilding their society? we know that they need to overcome their inability to reproduce naturally...
any ideas?
