What is needed is low cost, mass kill stuff like carpet bombing and diesel bombs, plus giving the Kurds all of the flame throwers they can carry.
“Smart bombs are and expensive and ineffective way to kill jihadis. You can’t bomb them into the stone age; they are there already.”

Napalm and cluster bombs. Too bad they’ve both been “outlawed”. It’s ridiculous to say that some lethal weapon is “less humane” than some other lethal weapon. Tell that to someone who’s lungs have been shredded by a conventional bomb shock wave...
Cluster bombs in particular are highly effective, and the technology is there to almost completely prevent dud bomblets.
I’m fond of cluster bombs.
