It sounds a lot like 8 billion other people dying, either quickly or very slowly, from the resulting nuclear war that would happen.
The resulting nuclear war would likely be limited between Israel and whoever the other nuclear party was, meaning probably ~100 million deaths would be the upper limit.
In any case, the indiscriminate death of millions of civilians would be a fucking horrific thing.
Even a small scale nuclear war would do horrible shit to the planet climate wise not to mention the economic fallout. We're already seeing the knock-on effects of the Hormuz shit. Now imagine those producer countries nuked to shit and instead of a temporary problem it becomes a permanent problem.
Yeah, like if we just indiscriminately bombed an entire country, then prevented anyone from sending aide while simultaneously bombing their hospitals. That would be bad. Then if we used snipers to kill their children, imprisoned the rest, then raped and abused them in detention, that would be pretty bad huh? In fact, you could say a society that condones such actions deserves to be destroyed...
