		The French post offices abroad were a global network of post officees in foreign countries established by France to provide postal service where the local services were deemed unsafe or unreliable.
		They started appearing in the early 19th century, reached their heyday at the beginning of the 20th century, then started closing down in the 1910s and 1920s, with the office at Kwangchowan in China holding out until the 1940s.

		Posted by: Dilnareen at August 18, 2004 08:20 AM I think one possible answer to this situation was revealed quite clearly (if satirically) in the film, “The Mouse That Roared” — we could simply withdraw our forces, declare defeat, and then apply for financial aid from the “victors”.
		Posted by: citizenofearth at August 18, 2004 10:13 AM You’ve done somewhat better in your analysis this time around, but I must say that nothing you have said has convinced me that the US shouldn’t be seeking to leave as soon as possible.
		Posted by: Airedale at August 18, 2004 03:37 PM The saddest part of what you’ve outlined is that this scenario was one that was forecast by most people who were against this war from the outset.

		The French post offices in the Turkish Empire were post offices in various cities of the Ottoman Empire run by France between 1812 and 1923.
		Originally, the post office used postage stamps of France, but these were denominated in centimes and francs instead of the local piasters, so beginning in 1885, some French stamps were surcharged in piasters, at a rate of four piasters to the franc.
		Four post offices also issued their own stamps between 1893 and 1903: Cavalle (present-day Kavala), Dedeagh (Dedeagatch), Port Lagos, and Vathy (Samos).

	danieldrezner.com :: Daniel W. Drezner :: A long, winding, and long-winded response
		My previous post on my probability of voting for John Kerry generated a lot of feedback â“ and most of it was civil and respectful, a pleasant surprise given the tenor of the current political season.
		Kerry was on the wrong side of the nuclear freeze debate in the early eighties on the wrong side of the first Gulf War debate in the early nineties, and on the wrong side of the "lift-and-strike" optiuon put forward by Bob Dole on Bosnia in 1995.
		In particular, the Silver Star incident--there's a firefight going on, Kerry's boat is fired on by a rocket launcher, he orders his crew to beach the boat, he kills the guy with the rocket launcher--is pretty strong evidence that (a) he's decisive in a crisis and (b) he's willing to kill people.

		If Blair involves the British it appears he will in so doing completely destroy himself politically (the Americans must have something on Blair, or at least have promised him a chunk of Carlyle for when he is forced out of politics, for him to be acting so bizarrely).
		Appointing Lott to any post above dogcatcher is another type of coded message by the Republicans to their racist supporters that the true nature of the Republican party hasn't changed and racists can still know who their true friends are.

		The French people are in general gloomy, temperamental, proud, arrogant, aloof, and undisciplined; and those are their good points.
		By tradition, the French surrender more or less at once and, apart from a temporary shortage of Scotch whisky and increased difficulty in getting baseball scores and stock market prices, life for the visitor generally goes on much as before.

	TomDispatch - Withdrawal on the agenda
		When it came to Fassihi's piece on her life as a reporter, the only catch was: It wasn't a Journal piece at all, but an e-letter to friends that somehow was released onto the Internet where it sped around like a demon.
		In the end, Fassihi confirmed that the document was the real deal, though she did so not to an inquiring mainstream reporter but to Jim Romenesko, a media columnist for the Poynter Institute who first posted her letter.
		Bombs and other heavy armaments, however "precise," are by their nature indiscriminate and tend to do quite the opposite -- as of course does the kicking down of a door if a hostage isn't on the other side.
