UNITED NATION, N.Y.,—The
Security Council convened
Wednesday afternoon on the com-
plaints and counter charges of
aggression filed against each
other by Syria and Israel, while
the shadow of the latest anti-
government revolt in Damascus
hung over the Council chamber.
However. there was no expec-
tation that the events at Damas-
cus would have any immediate
effect on the Council delibera-
tion, since the military junta that
seems to have taken over the
power in the Syrian capital is,
if anything, even more anti-
Israeli than the older government
was.
The Israel delegation was
ready for an all-out offensive plus
defense concerning Syria's ef-
forts to alter the situation regard-
ing Lake Tiberias which is, under
the terms of the 1949 Israeli-
Syrian Armistice Agreement, en- I
tirely inside Israel's territory.
The delegation from Israel was
bolstered by two top officials
sent here for Wednesday's Coun-
cil meeting from Jerusalem. The ,
