I am not denying Isaac is the patriarch of the Israelites. The children of Israel came from the line of Isaac, not Ishmael.
But no, Isaac is not an Israelite. Neither is Abraham. But they both are the patriarchs of the Israelites.
Peace and blessings be upon the great prophets mentioned.

As per Quran Bani Israel ( children of Isreal) originated from Jacob/ Yaqoob .
Israel is another name for Yaqoob.
Israel means servant of God or bounded by God’s covenant.
Israelites originated from Jacob.
However Torah was given to Moses.So Jacob or his children weren’t Jew.
