Das ist auch meiner Meinung nach eine tatsächlich relevante Fragestellung. Ich halte den offensiven Erstschlag der Israelis auch gegen eine Nicht-Atommacht für durchaus realistisch.
Zitat:Recent events in Gaza also raise difficult questions about escalation thresholds. Since October 2023, Israel’s military campaign in Gaza has resulted in the killing of tens of thousands of Palestinians and the near-total destruction of much of the territory’s infrastructure. Entire neighbourhoods have been flattened. Hospitals, schools and civilian infrastructure have repeatedly been struck.
The intensity of the bombardment has been extraordinary. Some military analysts estimate that the explosive power dropped on Gaza during the early stages of the war alone amounted to several times the explosive yield of the Hiroshima atomic bomb.
The comparison does not suggest equivalence between nuclear and conventional weapons. The devastation of a nuclear detonation would be vastly greater. But it does reveal something important about the scale of force Israeli leaders have been willing to deploy when they believe national security is at stake. If a state is willing to unleash such overwhelming destruction through conventional means, the uncomfortable question arises: what would its threshold be if it believed it was actually losing a war?
