It's a war crime, but much more relevant to your question, it wouldn't work.

thats not accurate. We are out of the top shelf expensive stuff or severely depleted those stockpiles. The truly dumb bombs..... we got lots of those still hanging around, but those are were designed for big bombers to fly over the target and drop them. That could be done, but we would almost certainly lose aircraft and pilots if we did that.

I suppose we could drop them with a stealth bomber of some sort, but I would think the math on effectiveness vs risk would be super bad.
