Iran and Israel are the two major regional powers in the Middle East, however, Israel has consistently maintained the top position. This has resulted in Iran wishing to take hegemony away from Israel and become the dominant power in the Middle East. To this end, Iran has supported the Syrian Alawite Government (Bashar Al-Assad), the Terrorist/Paramilitary Organization of Hezbollah, the Terrorist/Paramilitary Organization of Hamas, and several other groups intending to weaken Israel and its position. Iran has consistently stated that it believes that Israel is a cancer and must be wiped off the face of the map (even though they make it clear that "they will not do the wiping"). Using these secondary forces to oppose Israel makes it appear like Iran is a peaceful country since Iran did not declare war on Israel, Hezbollah did or Hamas did. It gives Iran an odd deniability.
Israel has responded by killing Iranian nuclear scientists and consistently derailing Iran's nuclear program. Israel has focused its energy in defending its borders and trying to contain retaliation to its source, not the proxies.

What Proxy wars became common during the Cold War because they allowed the Soviet Union and the US to?
During the Cold War, proxy wars became common as they allowed the Soviet Union and the United States to engage in indirect conflict without risking direct military confrontation. By supporting opposing sides in conflicts around the world—such as in Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan—each superpower could promote its ideology and influence while avoiding the potential nuclear fallout of a direct confrontation. These wars also provided an avenue for testing military strategies and technologies in real-world scenarios. Ultimately, proxy wars were a key mechanism through which the Cold War rivalry unfolded globally.

How were the proxy wars of east Asia different than those of the middle east and Afghanistan?
The Proxy Wars in Southeast Asia, East Asia, and Afghanistan actively pitted Communist guerrillas or armies (supported by the Soviets and Chinese - Communist-bloc) against Capitalist/Fascist dictatorships (supported by the US and NATO - Capitalist-bloc). Conversely, the Proxy Wars in the Middle East did not involve Communist guerrillas, but rather the Communist-bloc stood by Arab Socialism and the Capitalist-bloc stood by Israel and convenient other allies.The other major difference is that the Proxy Wars in Southeast Asia and East Asia were, by and large, successful for the Communist-bloc, but the Proxy Wars in the Middle East were, by and large, successful for the Capitalist-bloc.
