Marketing conflates the two, not much we can do.

It’s not marketing. It’s a targeted campaign to intertwine the two… oh wait yeah it’s marketing 🤣

Israel's 1948 Declaration of Independence states the nation was founded on the "national and historic right of the Jewish people"

Israel's 2018 Basic Law constitutionally enshrined the state as the "nation-state of the Jewish people," granting exclusive national self-determination to Jews, prioritizing Jewish settlement as a "national value", designating Hebrew as the sole official language (with Arabic demoted to "special status"), affirming Jerusalem as the capital, and guaranteeing Jewish immigration rights.

This may be why people conflate the two. Israel has defined itself as Jewish state.

As Mo Amer says, it's a marketing issue.
