One interpretation of the Samson Option is Israel deciding "if we can't exist, we're taking everyone else down with us".
I don't think they have enough strategic nukes to do that.
Maybe they only kill some tens of millions of people then, rather than everyone
I think a few tens of million from direct and indirect damage and then maybe 300 million from famine depending on the soot injected into the atmosphere, so about the same as a decade of deaths under capitalism.
