But cortina is taken over by gravemind and the Halos were made to kill all humans so the flood will starv.
One, Cortana wasn't taken by the gravemind, the flood was just on High Charity. I don't see why people get that confused, it's so obviouse, especially when she can hide in any part of High Charity's electrical system. Two, it wasn't just meant to kill humans, and I'm not going to say the obviouse Covenant, it was meant to destroy every living organizm in the universe, Fish, Birds, plants, you name it. The only reason we grew back was because it failed partly to do its job and couldn't destroy the ameba and we crawled back out of the mud.
Back the the origional question. In order to destroy the haloes, the UNSC would have to sacrifice usefull ships which would be both a waste of resourses and a waste of arms that they can't afford. They destroyed Instolation 04 because they had no choice and the Pillar of Autumn was useless at that point. The only race that could destroy the rings would be the Covenant, and they're trying to activate them.
The flood thing is total BS though. When you're first th Arbiter, you fght the flood on a gas mining/experament lab, that was not on the Haloes. It was close, floating in the atmosphere of the gas giant but not quite on the planet itself and still beyond driving distance :). In my opinion, te flood can only be completely destroyed by killing their source, AKA the gravemind.
