These aren't Sharks. Sharks are animals that make no plans, have no motives other than basic animal instincts and pose no threat to land-dwelling humans.
These are intelligent sentient beings that (for some reason) attacked us in the past for over 25 years, destroyed entire colony worlds and killed thousands/millions of innocent people and many, many people died fighting them, the only recourse that our leaders felt we had was a strike with a bio-weapon.
What might have motivated our then-leaders to make that decision? They clearly felt that the Thargoids constituted a significant threat to humanity - after all this wasn't a war over territory they had 25 years to invade and they pretty much seemed to just do hit & run raids - it was a war over something else...
I personally do not believe that the Thargoids we're currently fighting are the same Thargoids we fought before. There's no need to go into that here (you can read it here) - but really, that's the major problem. If these aren't the same ones, then it means they might not actually be a threat to us (or, they are more of a threat than the previous bunch!) - if they are the same ones, we should probably all be out there with AX weapons killing them with extreme prejudice - or... have they changed their minds? We just don't know!
Current interactions demonstrate they'll exterminate any ships that "get in the way" take escape pods along with other salvage and apparently attack thousands of ships in the Pleiades (both small scale ships (NHSS5/6) and Megaships/capital ships). It's impossible to deny that the Thargoid interactions have already resulted in the deaths of what must amount to tens of thousands at least by now. And that apparently began before any (known) human attacked a Thargoid.
