Of course it is. NTP is working in UTC and is not affected from the
time zone.

That's your problem. You use the old style TZ which explicitly
sets the offset of the localtime and enforce you to change it
twice a year.
If you'll set your TZ to 'Asia/Jerusalem' than the zoneinfo
database (which is used by Linux/BSD/Solaris) will take care
of this for you as long as it's updated (on Linux it's normally
is since this package is updated more often than our country
change timezones.
Specific to RedHat/CentOS/Fedora, they copy the local timezone
file (/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Jerusalem) into /etc/localtime
so they won't need to set TZ at all. To make this easy for newbies
they have the {system,redhat}-config-date which present a nice
UI to set this.
