Yellow card for now. But, in a tournament style competition if a player has a yellow from the previous match and he receives a yellow in the current match, he is disqualified from the next game.

For the obvious ones, they should red card them and if the refs missed it, they should suspend them for the next game

I am all for curbing diving, but is it any different than faking a charge in the NBA?

Well do players in the NBA like Kobe or Manu or other jump shooters who fall down after an elbow tap get suspended?

I'm all for it in the NBA as well

But the impact is different in each game, since scoring is at a premium inn soccer
