Israel is an independent state, not a colony. It has been a UN member state since 1949. A colony is best described as "a tract of land which, along with its inhabitants, is subject to the territorial sovereignty of an alien, usually overseas, power." https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/210373?ln=en&v=pdf https://opil.ouplaw.com/display/10.1093/law:epil/9780199231690/law-9780199231690-e690#:~:text=8%20The%20common%20understanding%20of,its%20territorial%20or%20political%20structure.
