Problems with Iran and North Korea can only be solved diplomatically, if at all. Once we go to war, it exasperates the problem, and only adds more problems into the equation. Basic application of logic ought to tell us that, let alone the innumerable examples offered by history. Recent history should have pushed open our eyes to this very real possibility.

Iran and NK are 2 completely separate problems. NK HAS a nuclear weapon and all effort must be made to resolve their problems diplomatically...a nuclear war would be VERY bad for everyone. On the other hand, Iran hasn't yet developed a nuclear weapon, so although the option for a conventional war is way down on the list, to discount the use of force in this matter would be a mistake.
As for you assertion that it will only "exasperates the problem"...I find that completely wrong. The idea behind going to war is to remove the problem completely(i.e. no more leaders making the wrong decisions over there), so although their could be problems along the way, ultimately, the big problem would be solved.
