There is an easy answer to your question Jon. If Israel funds its atheletes the same way that the Australian govt does, that is, out of the public purse, then the team sent to China went as representatives and envoys of their country.

It would not be unreasonable to expect the government minister responsible for the team or their funding to request an explaination for this fools rudeness.
