This is the proposal that should be offered to Iran. Iran will be permitted to pursue its nuclear program as long as it’s for peaceful purposes. Iran will be strictly monitored for compliance. Any violation will result in invasion by the US, Europe, and any other nations willing to join in. If Iran agrees to the proposal, all sanctions will be immediately lifted. This proposal saves face for Iran, since its leaders could claim that its nuclear program was always for peaceful purposes. It also saves face for Trump who could claim that all he wanted was for Iran not to have nuclear weapons. The war in Iran is spiraling out of control. This might be the only peaceful way out.
I don’t see Iran taking that deal. The US unilaterally withdrew from the JCPOA, and all the other signatories went along with that decision. The US started a war with them twice in the past year during active negotiations. The regional hegemon that has been calling for the regime’s destruction for decades has been bombing whoever they feel like with impunity.
At this point, Iran would need to either feel completely cornered; or receive sufficient concessions that cannot be easily walked back.
Not only the bombing but Iran faced protests not too long ago. If Iran accepts the deal, there would be no reason for the US and Israel to attack. The lifting of sanctions would quell the unrest.

You mean the exact thing they agreed to over 11 years ago and then the US just trampled all over?
The difference is that Trump is discovering that it’s difficult to get Iran to submit to his will.
