Does Israel gain or lose from rising oil prices? Genuinely have no clue what their logistics supply chain is so :p

Net neutral. Though it imports its energy, its backer, the US is a net exporter and it will offset Israeli losses.

As far as I can recall, Israel is not the one footing the bill but the whole West. Israel's existence depends on the West support.

With that context, a better question will be if the West can sustain themselves with oil prices over $120+ USD.

Israel is not a petrol state AFAIK, relying on imports for 99% of its consumption.
