I agree that getting "official" control over the strait is nuts and I have no clue how Iran could realistically believe they'll get that (unless they just looking for some bs phrasing to then sell as propaganda).The world isn’t going to let them extort them for ships passing indefinitely. Neither will corporate greed.
Any country can shut it down if they, like Iran, are willing to blow up commercial ships.

But regarding the bolded, that's not really true. Any country can go and shut it down if they are crazy enough to do it, but no other country can do it in the same way Iran can. As long as they have stockpiles of shyt to bomb and threaten/attack ships, they can continue to hide stuff and use their terrain and location in their favor. That's not something other nations can do.
I do wonder how dumb can Iran become though. Because they can end up overplaying their hand.
this conflict won't truly end until Iran stops committing crimes against humanity across the region and to their own people
this conflict has nothing to do with Iran doing fukked up shyt to its own people. And even if by some miracle they stopped backing military groups that cause upheaval in the region, tensions would still be present (sunni vs shia, zionists vs everyone, whatever) as it's been the story in the region since basically forever
