US protesters could be seen carrying signs condemning a "New Holocaust", a "genocide in the making", and the "terror" of the Iranian government. The Republican first threatened to intervene if Iranian protesters were killed, but then said he was satisfied by Iranian assurances that demonstrators would not be executed.
