The Wraith have one thing that makes them vulnerable and probably stop them from growing in numbers, but the contrary: the 'limited food suply'. Now the atlantians wants to repair that and to make them stronger as a civilisation. Why? Did the Wraith really look like the trusting type? Just look what happened with the only other Wraith who actually came with the ideea to eliminate the 'need to feed' and what were his next objectives! I really wished to see Woolsey agreeing with this 'plan'.
Sheppard says that for 4 years they are fighting the Wraith with no result. That's a exageration, the Replicators have fought the Wraith, the Wraith have fought the Wraith, the Ancients have fought the Wraith, not the atlanteans. Atlantis has cloaked jumpers and powerfull ships used like cargo and transport ships between the 2 galaxy. They only did rescue operations and only challange the Wraith if they were forced in a specific situation. Actually they did more alliances with the Wraith than battles. This episode actually showed what few well-aimed shoots from a cloaked-uncloacked jumper in combinations with a Hive/Daedalus firepower can do. I'd say that in maximum one week the Wraith problem can be easily resolved, provided we have a Hive tracking system and Apollo and Daedalus support, and there was no need to make an episode to replace the Wraith leadership from an ignorant and short-minded Queen with a conosaire and a visionary.
Todd certanly used their 'stupidity' in his favor, used Teyla to gain access to the Queen of Queens and in the end he recived the key of the empire and a empty threat. Just brilliant!
Now imagine you being a Wraith with all their predatorial nature and the god complex, would you really risk your 'power', longevity, special abilities, knowing that somewhere close there is a 6 billions world of stupid people with stupid leadership waiting to be culled? I just couldn't stopped laughing when the scared doctor was explaining to the 'smart bugs' how they can be TREATED and their insectoid DNA manipulated. Could you seriously imagine few colonies of Wraith poets, musiciens or painters drinking beer and watching american football? 'Feeding' for the Wraith is not only a need, it's a way of life, this is what they are, all their actions are converging to this ONE moment. Just don't want to see their nature destroyed, in case this is the intention.
