Not in any sustained raid. The only time Israel bombed Iraq was when they targeted the Osriak Nuclear Reactor in Iraq in 1981. Although, during the first Gulf War in 1991, Iraq launched several SCUD missiles into Israel.

Why did Iraq bomb israel?

It depends on the war, but the most famous case of Iraq bombing Israel was in 1991 during the Persian Gulf War of 1990-1991. The idea was to goad Israel into joining the United Nations coalition attacking Iraq. While this might sound counter-intuitive since this would give Iraq another enemy, the entrance of Israel into the war would alienate the Arab members of the coalition. Saudi Arabia, whence many of the attacks on Iraq came, publicly made clear that it would withdraw support for the war if Israel joined. The loss of Saudi Arabia as a US ally in the Persian Gulf War would be more devastating than the gain of Israel. Israel did not join the war at the US's urging as much as it wanted to for this reason.
