No, the protests in the Iran are not finished. What is interpreted by many commentators as a waning of the protests, is a brutal suppression of all available power of institutions, weapons and money.

Many of the high clergy in Qom are critical of the regime and to speak openly about the separation of Church and State. Integrated in the regime clerics such as Ayatollah Dschannati and Ayatollah Mohammad Yazdi, Mesbah Yazdi, however, regularly rail against the opponents of the regime and call for tougher action against any protests.
