You are correct that the Israelites and the state if Israel are two entirely different things. We do have zero obligation to them.
However, the Bible is a book of race too. Knowing if you are an Israelite is pretty easy. But you are correct, most don’t know if they are a descendant or not. There have been some good books on the ancestry of Israelites.
