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.

SUBJECT: JAMAICA: DEMARCHE DELIVERED ON OPPOSING UNGA RESOLUTIONS 
WITH ANTI-ISRAEL BIAS 
 
REF: STATE 118799 
 
ΒΆ1. (U) Per reftel, EmbOff delivered demarche and delivered nonpaper 
expressing U.S. concern regarding the number of UNGA resolutions 
reflecting an anti-Israel bias.  Demarche was delivered to Ms. 
Shae-Alicia Lewis and Mr. Rohan Clarke of the International 
Organizations Department of the Government of Jamaica (GOJ)'s 
Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade (MFAFT) on the 
morning of November 24.  In recent years, Jamaica has consistently 
voted in favor of such resolutions; Lewis advised Emboff that these 
votes are often intended to maintain collegial relations within the 
Non-Aligned Movement (NAM), and are not necessarily indicative of 
substantive support for the resolutions.  Post will relay any 
substantive response.
