Thank you brother. By this I mean "Israel" as political state. I think here is some difference by them.
 
It is most unfortunate that the Israel state uses the name of Israel, which is a name given to prophet Yaa'kub pbuh by Allah SWT.

That's why we always have to attach "state" to Israel when we refer to the jewish state, instead of just "Israel"

I prefer to use "yahood" though, but non-muslims and many muslims would not understand what it is.
 
Here's in Boso Jowo / Javanese, a language spoken by more than 75 millions people:

Dalem sedoyo ora sudi ngakui negoro Israel

there was a prophet named Israel?

Here are a couple translations from Google.

In Swahili;
Hatuna kutambua Israeli!

In Persian;
ما اسرائیل را به رسمیت نمیشناسد!



In Greek;
Εμείς δεν αναγνωρίσει το Ισραήλ!

May Allah help our brothers and sisters in Palestine.

I copied this from Lisa0 because my Somali is downright emberassing.
In Somali;
Ma Aqoonsanin wadanka Israaiil sikastaba.

May Allah (swt) help our brothers & sisters in Palestine.

Israel is the name that Allah gave to prophet Yaakub a.s. Prophet yaakub a.s. was the son of prophet Ishak a.s., so he was the grandson of prophet Ibrahim a.s.
Bani Israel is the descendent of prophet Yaakub a.s.

That's why it is very awkward if we curse using the name Israel only because then you curse a prophet beloved to Allah SWT, so it is better to clarify the state of Israel or bani Israel.
I prefer to use the name yahood or jews.
