Just checked and it isn't accurate for citizens of Pakistan. For instance it says, "visa is required for Israel". Pakistan doesn't recognise Israel therefore they can't even apply for a visa.

I think you've made a mistake there. Pakistan isn't in charge of deciding who can visit Israel. It's up to Israel to decide that.

There are a number of accounts on the internet of Pakistani citizens asking Israel for a visa, and receiving one.

But I think people can still visit and have to obtain visas. The Israelis put and an extra page in the passport and stamp it.

I know, I know, why and how is that possible? The ways of the world are strange. I just know Pakistanis who have visitors Israel.

The website is accurate - a visa is required- but oversimplifying things. It's certainly possible, but it requires jumping through hoops. Essentially you have to "hop" through a third country.
