What do you call "real time" precisely? Is it the time on your wall
clock or a time from your computer? I find very strange to not have an
entire number of hours between the two, but instead a 12 minutes difference.

What time did you expect instead of the one currently returned?

By Real time i ment the time on :
My mobile phone And on televison.

Perhaps it is related to Israeli DST issues (They aren't related to
dates but to goverment ideas).

To "fix" it moved the clock one hour manually (the pc's clock).
in other words  -
The DST in isreal should be +3 and not +2 (UTC).
