This strikes me as a variant of the ultimatum game. The allies would have to accept a large asymmetry of power. If even one of them rejects the ultimatum you’re stuck with the prospect of giving up your strategy (having burned most or all of your political capital with other nations), or committing mass murder.
When you add in the inability of governments to make binding commitments, this doesn’t strike me as a viable strategy.
