A big part of the reason no one has used nukes in any of the post-WWII conflicts is sheer dumb luck since the 50s there’s been a real threat of out-of-control escalation, if not complete global annihilation. You think twice about nuking someone if it means you’ll get nuked back.
If Israel nukes Syria or Iran, who would retaliate in kind? It’s a fundamentally different scenario than the Cold War, or the India-Pakistan situation, etc.
