My guess is that they're testing the waters. Attacking Iran directly would draw in a much larger war. Bombing some places in lebanon probably won't do much aside from put some attention on what's going on in the ME. Attacking Iran and Syria will probably enlarge the war quite a bit more.
Of course, it's just begun, so they may end up striking Syria and Iran.
