Airlines often list flights with stops like this and call them "direct" because they show up at the top of travel agent listings, higher than flights with connections. If you take a "direct" flight, however, you earn the point-to-point mileage from your start to your destination. Even more galling is the fact that airlines often keep the same flight number on such itineraries but force a change of aircraft. So, you could have a connection and not earn the proper segment mileage/credits.

In this case, when ticketed as flight 90 all the way through, you earn mileage LAX-TLV instead of LAX-EWR-TLV. You can often have a direct flight ticketed with each segment listed separately and then you would receive mileage for each segment. You just need to know to ticket it that way. In this case that would be flight 90 LAX-EWR connecting to flight 90 EWR-TLV.
