America Is Using Cannons to Kill Mosquitoes in Iraq

The world’s most powerful military is dispatching multi-million-dollar aircraft and their pilots into harm’s way to destroy $70,000 Humvees

The new war the U.S. is waging over Iraq is succeeding. With help on the ground from Kurdish and Iraqi troops, U.S. airstrikes have pushed fighters from the militant group Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) away from the Mosul Dam.
But the daily details of U.S. military airstrikes only serve to highlight how little American military might can do. http://time.com/3206804/iraq-syria-isis-obama-airstrikes/
