    The ONLY way to deal with North Korea is diplomacy.

    That isn't the only way. About 500 mid-sized nuclear warheads would be enough firepower to completely obliterate the military functionality of North Korea, including the ungodly number of missiles and artillery pieces they have at hand. You'd also destroy what little economy is left and kill somewhere around 80-90% of the population.

    That would put a definite end to North Korea as a threat to anyone, other than as a source of radiation poisoning.
