Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:

  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

MEDIA REACTION: 
SUBJECT: PRESIDENT AND MRS. BUSH HOLD WHITE HOUSE 
CONFERENCE ON THE AMERICAS, JULY 9; SCO PAULO 
 
 
ΒΆ1. "Late and Modest Attention" 
 
Editorial on liberal Folha de S. Paulo (7/11) comments: "The 
re-discovery' of Latin America by the White House comes late, it is 
a reactive measure and does not promise glaring results. It comes 
late because George W. Bush already displays all the symptoms ...of 
a lame duck.... The sudden emphasis on Latin America comes after a 
series of polls showed the prestige of the U.S. in the region is 
low.... It is also a reaction to President Hugo Chavez' 
inflammatory, anti-Bush rethoric.... The fact is that Washington's 
aid to all Latin American countries remains insignificant. For 
fiscal year 2008, Bush proposed US$1.5 billion. Israel alone 
received US$ 2.62billion in 2004. In the same year, Iraq was granted 
US$18.4billion."
