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.

Discussing cables

SUBJECT: ASSESSMENT OF FOREIGN POLICY IMPLICATIONS OF 
PROPOSED NSF RESEARCH GRANT NO. 0852897: NO OBJECTION 
 
REF: STATE 81983 
 
1. (U) Per reftel, we examined whether the work of the 
proposed National Science Foundation (NSF) grant would have 
adverse implications on U.S. foreign policy.  From our review 
of the backgrounds and the work of the proposed 
organizations, we assess that there are no adverse 
implications for U.S. foreign policy with the proposed 
research grant. 
 
2. (U) In our review, EconOff researched the background, 
mission, and international partnerships of the three 
organizations involved in the proposed project: the 
International Human Dimensions Program on Global 
Environmental Change (IHDP--and its parent organizations), 
the International Council for Science (ICSU), and the 
International Social Science Council (ISSC).  EconOff also 
reviewed the outcomes from the April 2009 IHDP meeting in 
Bonn.
