From The Guardian's live-blog:

The BBC's Tehran correspondent Jon Leyne reckons the speech was as hardline as it could have been, and that the Khamenei was basically threatening to "set the dogs" on the protesters. The New York Times talks of "shadowy Iranian vigilantes" vowing to taking bolder action against the protesters. The Huffington Post mentions unconfirmed reports of a plan to march on Rafsanjani's house in protest at his apparent support for the opposition.
