Saphora Smith, Linda Givetash and Lawahez Jabari, NBC News: Israel's shadow war with Iran risks triggering wider conflict, analysts say
“If you infringe on their sovereignty — how much are they going to tolerate it?" Yossi Mekelberg, a professor of international relations, said.
LONDON — A recent series of airstrikes in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon that neighboring countries blame on Israel risks escalating into a wider conflict, some analysts say.
The strikes — most of which Israel has not claimed responsibility for — began Saturday when Israel claimed to have thwarted an imminent Iranian attack by striking an elite wing of Iran's Revolutionary Guardnear Damascus, the Syrian capital.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Twitter that the Iranian fighters were targeting Israelis living in the Golan Heights, a region that Israel annexed from Syria after the 1967 Arab-Israeli War.

Man Accused of Murdering Margery Magill Came to U.S. as Refugee
"A law enforcement official confirmed to Breitbart News that Aregahegne originally arrived in the U.S. from Ethiopia in November 1999, coming as the child of a refugee. Years later, in 2012, Aregahegne became a naturalized U.S. citizen."

Margery was murdered, because she was white.
And if Israel doesn't engage in this "shadow war," targeting weapons and materiel, it will have no future. Simple math: preemptive strikes now, or defensive war later.
