The questioner's calendar is running slow.

Israel was admitted as a new member of the United Nations, by majority vote of the 58 existing members, in May of 1949, just about 1 year after the new nation was born. That's more than 60 years ago, and only a couple of years after the UN itself was founded. The resolution recognized that as a peace-loving nation, Israel embodied the principles of the world organization.

As concerns the UN Security Council, Israel was de factobut not de jure denied a rotating seat on account of the mechanisms that bring such states to have seats. Each region of the world is united as an unofficial group and the Asia-Pacific Group (to which Israel would have geographically belonged) has withheld Israeli membership on account of the large number of Muslim States opposed to Israel. Therefore in 2000, Israel became a temporary member of the Western Europe and Others Group (which includes other Western but non-European countries like Canada, Australia, and New Zealand). The membership became a permanent renewal in 2004.
