If the alien brains are like we have in here Earth, there is no separate rational vs emotional brains. It just doesn't work that way. Pure rational thinking would be like computer with no programs, no goal, no tasks. If there has been such creatures, those will die soon in vain, and animals those seek reproduction and survival will thrive. We don't have free will with any pure sense and will never have.
But what comes to reasons to aliens to attack in here; all the same reasons why humans and other animals on Earth make wars, or don't make, are as good. Like, maybe we are just tasty? Why we "attack" against chickens, or potatoes?
