What would I do?

First of all, I don't like your assumptions. You're already declaring them smarter than us and feasrsome......cannabalistic, even.
So right there, you've lost me. If they were that aggressive and hungry, we'd be canned goods by now. As for what we should be doing:

>1) Should we declare a preemptive war and direct our biggest artificial satellite towards them and that way blow them out of the sky?

If they've been watching us and they're on their way, there is NOTHING we can do to stop them.

>2) Should we take all our spacecraft, including the satellites, and go into their vicinity of space, just to show them that there is intelligent life on Earth and that we have more resources and knowledge of space than they do, in the process hoping that they will not attack us with their nuclear weapons.

Who says they have nuclear weapons? They may have weapons so far in advance of ours that ours are made totally useless.

>3) Or should we collect all our people and equipment, get into our biggest spaceships and retreat into more hospitable regions of space, far enough so that these war mongers can not get to us.

Wow, science fiction. I like that. We couldn't even get a few people up in a Shuttle to save our souls.
So the answer is......if this were even remotely happening........
Find out what they want, see if they want to help us. Hey, they might want to liberate us from ourselves. Maybe they want our oil. Maybe they want to democratize us.
Never know, maybe they're sending their troops.....LOL
