Israel is not a "theocratic" state.
Israel has laws to enable members of the Jewish nation (of any religion) to immigrate to Israel. Because the whole purpose of Israel was to combat the persecution of the Jewish nation (which includes the Jewish religion and ethnicity).
Also, Israel has some laws of religious nature (Relating mostly to discouraging work on Sabbath, marriage and burial). While the religious-based laws are a PITA in Israel (marriage is a real problem for many, burial of non-Jewish soldiers can be degrading, etc), it is far from a "theocracy".
