The thud of exploding mortar shells and smoke billowing from Syrian territory below have drawn Israelis to lookouts along the suddenly tense frontier, including this spot on Mount Bental — a former Syrian army post that Israel seized when it captured the strategic plateau from Syria in 1967. The deteriorating situation in Syria has become a mounting concern for Israel, which fears the unrest will spill over the border, and the long-quiet frontier area will become a new Islamist front against the Jewish state. Meir Elakry, an off-duty Israeli security guard who lives just 10 miles from the Syrian border, said he was afraid Syrian President Bashar Assad would become desperate and turn his guns on Israel. “I want to know what the danger is to my house,” said Elakry, clutching a pair of binoculars. “I don’t believe Assad will be quiet if he falls.” Warfare in Syria’s biggest city ragesOfficial: Israel...
