Deal with the fact that I am not going to post great details of what's been happening to me the past many weeks.

Instead, I'm going to comment on a headline currently running on Yahoo news:
Arms Inspectors Search Iraq Nuke Complex

Now let's see how that works with a different country; say, France:
Arms Inspectors Search France Nuke Complex

Obviously, editors would be jumping over each other to correct it to "French". Otherwise, it sounds as though there ought to be a comma in it, as in:
Arms Inspectors Search Iraq, Nuke Complex

Which would be a much bigger story. How hard is it to say "Iraqi"?
