I knew that, it was just a joke.
Next question, how many human worlds were glassed over the course of the war? Was there ever an attempt to attack a covenant planet?

Close to 800. No direct attack was planned, in part due to the lack of solid intel, and sheer overwhelming pressure that the Covenant's military was pushing on humanity, leaving UNSC forces stretched thin. Offensive operations were definitely conducted, but none of that magnitude. The closest one was Operation: RED FLAG which was scuttled when the Covenant made their presence known in the Epsilon Eridani system on August 30th.

We are not worthy!

Not on any populated worlds, no. Pegasi?

Interesting, they should have attacked a populated world though.

I don't think they knew of any. The UNSC was getting butt-blam!-ed the whole war

True, but macing a covenant world would have given those bastards something to think about. May even force the covenant to talk things out with the UNSC knowing their worlds were in danger as well. War could have ended sooner.

Easier said than done.
