According to this it sounds as though Iran is ready for peace. They want war reparations. Good. They will open the Straits based on transit fees. That is good, too.
The Panama Canal is not free. Neither are the waterways of Iran. That is appropriate use of a country’s assets. Iran will have to provide for a safe passage if it is collecting fees. So, the issue with pirates won’t exist if in sovereign waters.

I see nothing that is an unreasonable demand from Iran. The leadership wants to get back to governance with a focus on prosperity. That is fantastic. It is a whole new picture for the Gulf countries. I would expect the regional countries to welcome these ideas.
Those transit fees can be a new source of income from a country with a higher rate of impoverishment.
The article below is from the Iranian Resistance. They should be brought into the peace talks. They could settle their complaints along with the countries of the area. I am sure the stark reality of unprecedented war would bring an interesting focus to their leadership.
I think bringing any of the resistance in for talks may result in a clear understanding of their grievances. It could be a turning point resulting in greater domestic peace. It is possible. There are many Iranians jailed that may very well be some of Iran’s best citizens. The leadership should not be afraid of differences in opinion. The resistance has not been violent. There are demonstrators, not criminals.
Greater understanding can lead to greater domestic peace. The leadership can express a reverence for the faith without victimizing citizens with different ideas.

Iran used to be a more open society. Religion is good for tolerance to open communication. There is so much promise with the ideas Iran has for itself, there simply cannot be anymore violence.
The real problem is the USA Republican majority in Congress. They must restrain Trump. Leaders of both parties may very well need to be part of the peace talks as well.
