I keep wondering why we're using aircraft now that we control the ground(?) Should all this just be a function of artillary? What am I missing here?

Bombs are fun and why should we use feet on the ground to go up against guards?

This is Fallujah. The reason they hit it at night is because it's a popular restaurant and they didn't want to kill any innocents. They took out the weapons storage that was there.
Fallujah has been arial for weeks.

Secondly, a JDAM is much heavier and much more accurate than artillery.
