Well, not exactly. Technically, for an international purchase you
need a 15 or 16 digit card. Local Isracard's have (or at least used
to have, last time I looked) 8 digits. They are usable in Israel only.
But this is only one part of the issue.
The plastic companies are not obliged to honor an international
deal when the card says "Valid only in Israel". The fact that
an Israel-only Visa card (16 digits) does pass for international
deal, does not change this.
