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.

SUBJECT: ICELAND SUPPORTS MOVING ISAF COUNTER-NARC DISCUSSION TO 
NORTH ATLANTIC COUNCIL 
 
Ref:  STATE 97395 
 
Classified by: Amb. Carol van Voorst for reasons 1.4 (b) and (d). 
 
(C) PolOff presented reftel points to Icelandic Ministry for Foreign 
Affairs Defense Counsellor Audunn Atlason on 11 September.  Atlason 
said Iceland would support moving the discussion on expanding ISAF's 
OPLAN to cover counternarcotics actions from the NATO Military 
Committee to the North Atlantic Council.  However, Atlason cautioned 
that Iceland would be unlikely to take a firm stance on the policy 
specifics, as Iceland does not have any military forces.  The MFA 
would prefer to leave the operational discussion to those with forces 
in theater, he noted.
