This article analyzes the current situation in Iran regarding the protests. The size of the protests appears to be growing, although it is difficult to say if they can maintain momentum. The Iranian government has spoken of making a few concessions, although they might be insufficient. It is possible there could be another Iranian revolution if the situation deteriorates.

I'm deeply conflicted about a possible revolution in Iran. I don't like the Iranian government, but I can't hope for a revolution either. They don't often accomplish very much. If there were a revolution, we could find, after intense bloodshed and chaos, that a far worse organization assumes control of the nation.
