"BEEP!"
That's the reasoning, and if you honestly think the genocide of your people is at hand then fucking over the assholes who enabled said bullshit makes total sense.
That said I don't think this is a samson option territory, as has been said Jordan is just done with the conflicts and has backed out, Syria just got through a civil war and their government is on shakey feat. Iraq is a dumpster fire, Egypt is on the verge of civil war. Turkey's too far and has other problems and The Saudis and Iranians are at each others throat.
If it goes nuclear its just going to be the west bank and Gaza getting destroyed nothing more.
I get the reasoning and I agree that europe should have just let you guys handle it. but yeah I agree with carrot. it's a good way of making those same holes think that their only mistake was not beating you to the puch earlier and decide "Not to make the same mistake twice."
I mean heck you might as well just be giving a middle finger to God himself at that point. it's "You abandoned us so we are going to destroy your artwork." reasoning.
