> the State of Israel is not a state?

Israel is of course a state, it is a state established in 1948 and its border should thus remain in the shape and form of 1948.

> when was its independence?

15 November 1988 for declaring independence. 29 November 2012 for becoming an observer state of the United Nation General Assembly.

It becomes a fully recognized state when the UNGA observer state status was obtained after a formal vote by countries around the world. You are free to consider it as the consensus of the human race.
