its a bit strange. booking tlv-mad-nyc in 1 ticket would be 45.000 aadvantage miles. booking tlv-mad and mad-nyc (for december) in 2 tickets, it would be 20.000 miles + 20.000 miles for a total of 40.000 miles. off course, the later option would not protect me at a misconnect...
You would be protected if the TLV-MAD flight were on IB, and the MAD-JFK flight were on AA. And, of course, you could stop over in MAD if desired.
But for 45K, you could fly nonstop from TLV to JFK/EWR on LY, which is also an AA partner.
