Iran asks to address Security Council

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has asked to address the U.N. Security Council to defend Tehran's nuclear programmes, the president of the 15-member body said on Thursday.

Odd, since just hours earlier Ahmadork said the Security Council was "illegitimate". Is this showing his true feelings about what's happening? With his rhetoric will he end up being like N. Korea and stomping his feet all these months, but then just want to make a deal?

So, what is it? An illegitimate body or one you need to speak to? Can't be both, now can it?
