I think that saying that the US cannot allow a nuclear DPRK is a bit late, it already has, the DPRK has at least one nuke, Iran will probably have one shortly, if it hasn't already. So the time of debating on whether we should let them have nuclear weapons is past, now we should be focusing on what we should do now that they have nuclear weapons. Rather than pumping money into mini-nukes and bunker busters, the west should be focusing on ABM strategies, and planning on putting those strategies into place in countries like South Korea and Japan, after all, there's no point in having a nuclear missile if it's not going to reach its target. Once they've launched their compliment of nukes, thus giving away the launch sites and storage areas if we don't know them already, and the nukes are intercepted and destroyed...then it's time to strike back, and then there'll be a perfectly solid reason that no nation can argue against intervention.
