In the heart of LA's Iranian community, 
many taking a breath after expecting their home country to come under attack 
at this very moment. It's surreal. It's even hard to believe. 
>> He said he's going to bombing the civilization. 
whole civilization will die tonight in Iran unless the country's regime met his demands by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time. 
Little Persia in Westwood is home to dozens of Iranian businesses. 
Some people living and working here left 
fearing for their loved ones still in Iran. 
I am worried for people 
I everybody in Iran are my brother and my sister. There is no different. 
Several demonstrators held signs in protest of the president's threats on UCLA's campus today. 
Trump's crazed warmongering attempt to destroy Iran and the Iranian people must not succeed. 
About an hour and a half before the deadline, those threats put on pause 
when President Trump announced a two-week ceasefire. 
Some in LA's Persian community say they thought the president was bluffing, not believing the US would attack civilians in Iran. 
>> Bombing the bridges and power plant and water resources, but maybe he would do that, but he wouldn't do on people. 
Others told us they're urging family in Iran to take the threats seriously. 
Everyone in this community saying they want the regime to work with the US to find a peaceful way out of this standoff. 
We all want a resolution. 
We want the people in Iran to feel safe. 
We want us Americans here to feel safe. 
And and it's a lot of question marks to be honest with you.
