The article discusses the concerns of Iranian Americans, particularly focusing on Roozbeh Farahanipour, a restaurant owner in Westwood, who expresses deep apprehension over the recent U.S. military actions in Iran. The conflict was ignited by an Israeli surprise attack, culminating in U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites. Farahanipour shares his worries about potential civilian casualties and the possibility of broader conflict, reflecting the sentiments of the 141,000-strong Iranian community in Los Angeles. He voices fears that any regime change could lead to chaos akin to Iraq or Afghanistan.
Farahanipour lamented, "I don't think that anything good will come out of this. If the regime changes, we're facing either another Iraq or Afghanistan."
He questioned, "What might happen to civilians in Iran if the U.S. attack triggers a more widespread war? What about the potential loss of Israeli lives?"
