Tehran-based Lebanese researcher Hakam Amhaz stated during an appearance on Lebanon On (YouTube) on April 1, 2025, that one of Iran's strengths is its ability to build a nuclear weapon at will. He claimed that Iran already possesses a 'plasma weapon,' according to various reports. Amhaz emphasized that if Iran's nuclear facilities are attacked, the country would be compelled to produce nuclear weapons. Regarding the fatwa issued by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei prohibiting nuclear weapons, Amhaz pointed out that there is another fatwa from Khamenei, which asserts that the preservation of the Islamic Republic of Iran takes precedence over all other fatwas.

Hizbullah-Affiliated Lebanese Political Analyst Muhammad Yaqoub: Hizbullah Will Keep Its Weapons As Long As Israel Exists; Just Let Them Try Collecting Our Weapons – Habibi, We Are Not Zelensky
Hizbullah-affiliated Lebanese political analyst Muhammad Yaqoub stated that talk of disarming Hizbullah is "nonsense," in a March 3, 2025 appearance on LebanonOn's Youtube channel. He emphasized that as long as Israel exists, Hizbullah's weapons will remain intact, and no one can take them away. Yaqoub stated that Hizbullah has sacrificed its leaders, including Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine, for Lebanon's sake and now, it is expected to surrender its weapons. He further argued that Hizbullah's desire for vengeance against Israel will not die and will be passed down from father to son until Israel is destroyed. He added, 'Let them try to collect [the weapons] in 60 days. Habibi, we are not Zelensky.' Interviewer: "According to reports, the U.S. gave Lebanon 60 days to fully disarm Hizbullah, whether south or north of the Litani River..." Muhammad Yaqoub: "Sixty days or sixty years? What is this nonsense?! Which weapons will be confiscated in 60 days, a year, or two? They can dream on. You talked, at the beginning of the show, and the dream to pray in Jerusalem and in Palestine. No, my dear! As long as Israel exists, and as long as it occupies our lands, these weapons will remain intact and nobody can take them. [...] "The resistance has sacrificed its leaders. Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine were martyred for the sake of this country, and now we are expected to surrender our weapons?! We want to take our vengeance from Israel. This vengeance will not die. It will be passed down from father to son, until Israel is destroyed. [...] "No. Let them try collect [the weapons] in 60 days. Habibi, we are not Zelensky... We are not Zelensky."
