you are the one that is all in blind. they have the option to look at their cards before deciding.

No. They get to look first, and have the full range of options: fold, call, raise. If SB and BB both have more chips than you, either one could raise your bet.

Others in the thread answered this but I'd like to know your reasoning for thinking that the other players have to call your all in blind bet.
