Syria was voted onto the UN security council on Monday. Israel\'s Ambassador to the UN Yehuda Lancry says that Syria backs 11 terrorist groups including Hizbuallah. He says that Syria\'s presence in the Security council is \"sheer absurdity.\" Of 177 nations who voted, 160 voted in favor of including Syria. Israel government spokesman Raanan Gissin says in response, \"It\'s about time that the world wake up and judge countries not according to the number of votes they gain in the United Nations but according to the policies they conduct in regards to terrorism.\"
