(43:8) We utterly destroyed them although they were greater in might than these. The examples of ancient peoples have gone before. *6

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*6) That is, the result of the senselessness of some particular people could not be that the entire mankind should be deprived of the guidance of the Prophethood and the Book, but its result always has been that the worshippers of falsehood who, being drunk with the pride of power, did not desist from mocking the Prophets, were ultimately destroyed. When Allah's wrath descended even the people, who possessed thousands of times greater power than that possessed by the puny chiefs of the Quraish, were crushed to annihilation like mosquitoes and fleas.
