There is no such thing as 'The United Nation of Israel', however Israel is a member of the UN.

Both of these kingdoms occurred between 1000 B.C.E. and 500 B.C.E. and are unrelated politically to the Modern State of Israel. (This is similar to how the Roman Empire is unrelated politically to the Republic of Italy even though they occupy some of the same territories.)
