Chapter VI resolutions, such as the resolutions against Israel, are non-binding recommendations which call upon disputing parties to settle their disputes by peaceful means such as "negotiation, enquiry, mediation, conciliation, arbitration and judicial settlement" (Article 33.1, Chapter VI, Charter of the United Nations).
Chapter VII resolutions, such as the resolutions against Iraq, are legally binding and enable firm action to be taken with respect to threats to peace and acts of aggression such as sanctions, inspections and containment.
Israel is not by resolution forced to act, Iraq is. Therefor comparing UN resolutions against Iraq to UN resolutions against Israel does not work, as those resolutions are of a different legal status.
