Since when did states have rights?

Yeah, "does Israel have a right to exist?" is a nonsense question. What's the difference between a state with that right and one that doesn't? Is a state that has a "right to exist" therefore somehow beyond reproach? I think it's a rhetorical tool that is meant to confuse people, because any clear eyed understanding of reality leaves Israel looking obviously terrible.
