Umm.. You could say that the whole country is stolen since they were just put there by the Allied, so that don't make much sense either. Thats part of the problem. When they where given the country nobody explained exactly what was theirs and what the current citizens should have.. Defining Israel is like walking on a waxcovered rope over quicksand.. in short not to be recommended..
But, I can answer why Israel is a part of eurovision. Since the colonies Israel was made of was part german and part allied territory, and they never officialy became a free country, just a gift, Israel has always been looked apon as a european country. Other factors are religion, import and export and culture.
