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.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables

4.  (U)  Control Officer will meet Senator Inouye and party

Visa 
---- 
 
5.  (U) Holders of U.S. diplomatic or official passports must 
have a Japanese visa to enter Japan.  Travelers on a U.S. 
tourist (blue cover) passport may enter Japan as a tourist 
without a Japanese visa for up to 90 days.  As of November 
20, 2007, all foreign nationals entering Japan, with the 
exemption of certain categories, are required to provide 
fingerprints and a facial photograph at the port of entry. 
This requirement does not replace any existing visa or 
passport requirements.  Official U.S. travelers will have to 
submit to the photograph and fingerprinting requirement 
unless they travel with a valid diplomatic or official visa 
or a Note Verbale.  The nature of the passport onto which the 
visa is pasted is not relevant, i.e. a tourist passport 
 
TOKYO 00003213  002 OF 002 
 
 
holder with a diplomatic or official visa will not have to 
submit to the biometrics collection process.  SOFA personnel 
are exempt under SOFA Article 9 (2) from the new biometrics 
entry requirements. 
 
---------------------- 
Embassy Laptop Policy 
---------------------- 
 
6. (U) The Embassy's electronic device (i.e. laptop, 
removable storage, video equipment, test equipment, etc.) 
policy states that absolutely no personal, non-government 
owned electronic devices may enter the Embassy.  Absolutely 
no equipment, even government-owned, may be connected to the 
Embassy network in any way without prior approval.  TDY 
employees are reminded that even government-owned equipment 
may not enter the Embassy without prior RSO approval. 
Absolutely no electronic device, even government-owned, may 
enter the CAA unless special pre-approval is given by the 
RSO, based on a compelling business need.  Please be advised 
that if the traveler does not have one of the following 
BlackBerry models and a service contract with one of the 
telecommunications companies (listing follows), then his/her 
BlackBerry will not work in Japan.  Japan has the most 
advanced cellular industry in the world and BlackBerry 
protocols are not as advanced as what are being used in Japan 
today.  (BlackBerry models: 8707G, H, V or U.S. 
Telecommunications Companies with a NTT/DoCoMo roaming 
agreement: Sprint/Nextel, ATT/Cingular, and T-Mobile)If you 
would like to bring a U.S. government-owned electronic device 
into the Embassy, please contact the RSO office (provide 
make, model, serial number, and purpose) prior to your visit 
for a briefing and approval. 
 
----------------- 
Threat Assessment 
----------------- 
 
7.  (U) U.S. Government facilities worldwide remain at a 
heightened state of alert.  As the U.S. Government has 
reported in public announcements over the last several 
months, U.S. citizens and interests abroad may be at 
increased risk of terrorist actions from extremist groups, 
which may target civilians and include suicide operations. 
The Department maintains information about potential threats 
to Americans overseas which is available to travelers on the 
internet at the Bureau of Consular Affairs home page: 
http://www.travel.state.gov.  The Embassy takes all threats 
seriously.  U.S. Embassy Tokyo can be contacted 24 hours a 
day at 03-3224-5000 (locally) or 81-3-3224-5000 
(internationally). 
 
8.  (SBU) The general threat from crime in Tokyo and 
throughout Japan is low.  Crime is at levels well below the 
U.S. national average.  Violent crime is rare, but does 
exist.  The Japanese National Police report continued 
problems with pick-pocketing of foreigners in crowded 
shopping areas of Tokyo.  Although street crime is low, 
common sense security measures are advised for all American 
citizens traveling in Japan. 
 
9.  (U) Also be advised that under no circumstances may 
weapons be brought into Japan.  Carrying a pocketknife 
(including Swiss Army-style knife, craft or hunting knife, 
box cutter, etc.) in public is forbidden.  Under Japanese 
law, carrying any such item in public, with a size exceeding 
8 cm in length, 1.5 cm in width or 2 mm in thickness, can 
subject the person to arrest or detention.
