The Martians are forcing the human to help them take over Earth. Rather than draw up plans for a big military battle, the guy is conducting a media campaign, betting that people will assume that "If it looks like an invasion, is reported like an invasion, and tastes like an invasion, it must be an invasion."
This is along the same lines of reasoning as disguising one's resistance HQ by putting up a sign that says "This is not a secret Cardassian rebellion headquarters".
