Oh I agree it is only a temporary solution. One that only puts it off for 2-3 years at most. They are running on E and are starting to panic.
Then even if it is over tomorrow. The mess that these people are in will last for 20 or more years. As they have no manufacturing base and have literally nothing that people want. Or any sort of government in place. The people are used to a Lenin style gov where everything is provided, and obedience is enforced at the end of a gun. It will be quite an adjustment. Never mind the thousands of people who are starving.
Also the fight will not be a 'simple' bomb them and wipe them out. We got into that quagmire in the 50s with them. Which is the reason we are in there in the first place.

I think in this case NKorea has pushed it too far. By 1) ignoring the treaty from the 1990s with the US and by 2) bombing a civilian town. It will not end well for any involved.
One solution is for the NKorean gov to 'give up' and admit they are chin deep in a problem they can not fix. But that will never happen due to the pride involved by those in charge there.
There is no 'nice' solution. Only ones that delay the inevitable.
