At the 2:10 minute mark the flag of Israel was display following an Arabic flag (I can’t determine which country) The flag of Israel follows a lady in an Islamic burka. I find this offensive to Israel and disrespectful.

People in the international church community know the significance of this and it has to be intentional.

Was it alphabetic order?

doesn’t matter

You do Bro Charles,
It does matter.
If it was alphabet order and you move Israel then you are partial with respect of persons and we are told 4 times in the New Testament alone to not have partiality or respect of persons. -

I love Israel as much as the next Christian does. I know they are the ones God has blessed and used to bless all of humanity.

As pointed out to me as I watched it,

The caution to her was that she would have to learn their customs and dress attire so she could be effective and not offend.

Ridiculous. As a missionary to a Muslim country carrying a flag, there was no intent to disrespect Israel. You are looking for a problem where none exists. Nobody arranged the order of countries other than Asia, Africa etc. These are the countries we serve.
