This remind me of the discussion in another thread, whatever to invade north korea or not, we ended up with "the losses would be too heavy to make it worthwile", another option would be to make it into a parking place, but that would be a lot of people mislead by a crazy leader who would suffer. I tell you onething though (this is directed especially at you PJ ) leave a crazy man in charge and give him a lot of power is the most dangerous thing you could ever do. if nothing else history lessons proves this very well. (That's also a thing about Iraq and saddam........ )
I don't doubt north Korea would launch at US if they could.
Perhaps the idea of a combined effort to invade and dethrone the leader of north korea was not entirely displaced, given the disaster it would be if they launched a nuclear bomb, even if it failed it could cause massive destruction, and who knows they might target S.Korea that would be very near. Now it might already be too late though, if someone tried to invade they might already have a bomb they would launch at any sign of attack.
I am not so sure china is so keen on that, after all the communist states sticks togheter and they might not be entirely "uncomfortable" with a threat to the US neither.
Offer what? we will give you a unlimited amount of money if you leave north korea ? he could already get everything he wants, and his people is doing anything for him? it is not the leaders which lack luxury just all the people.

As for solutions, if diplomacy and sanctions (by China too)

Kim Jong Il is extremely corrupt, and it's at least conceivable that the entire Communist Party elite could just be bought off.
