"We're thrilled. Most people think Iranians are the same as the regime. The people are way different than the regime. They could care less about the people. That's why they're killing them left and right."
"Thousands gathered outside the Westwood Federal Building on Sunday afternoon celebrating the fall of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and dreaming of a "free Iran" as war continued to escalate between Iran and a united U.S. and Israel."
Thousands from Los Angeles' Persian diaspora gathered at the Westwood Federal Building to celebrate the death of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei following U.S. and Israeli surprise attacks. Demonstrators displayed traditional Iranian flags, American flags, and Israeli flags, with some wearing green hats reading "Make Iran Great Again." The crowd chanted for a "free Iran" and danced in the streets. Participants expressed that the Iranian people differ significantly from the regime and hope the leadership change could bring increased freedom. The escalating conflict has resulted in at least three U.S. service members killed, five seriously wounded, and hundreds of casualties in Iran, including civilians, as counterattacks intensify across the Middle East.
