If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • 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.

REF: STATE 123081 
 
(SBU) Poloff delivered reftel demarche November 26 to Martin 
Romero in the Argentine MFA's Office for International 
Organizations.  Romero welcomed the U.S. message and said 
that Argentina sought to play a constructive role on Middle 
East issues.  He noted as well that, "like the U.S.," 
Argentina was a nation of immigrants and had significant 
communities supportive of both sides of the 
Israeli-Palestinian question.  He well understood the U.S. 
point about the disproportionate number of General Assembly 
resolutions focused on Israel, but added that the Ministry 
would have to study the content and history of each 
resolution, with input from appropriate offices, before he 
could speculate on how Argentina might vote.  He undertook to 
share the USG concerns about the number and content of the 
anti-Israel resolutions within the MFA as it considered 
voting instructions.
