Understanding cables

  • 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.

Title- Collective Selfishness 
 
Column in liberal Folha de S.Paulo (1-13) by gues 
journalist-columnist Mateus Soares de Azevedo sttes: "humiliated 
and offended Palestinians have been taken to the Gaza strip, 
expelled [to Gaza] by the new land owners, the Israeli 
Zionists....Zionism is a kind of 'collective selfishness'. For us 
[Zionists], everything; for others, nothing. If individual 
selfishness does not look pretty, imagine the collective 
[side].....To Support this war [in Gaza] is to justify its brutality 
and horrors; it's [the same as] being misled by [Zionist] 
propaganda."
