"WikiLeaks has gone from a drip to a torrent, and we need a way to keep up. With this post we inaugurate a new feature at this site. "The Palestine Cables" will be a weekly chronicle/analysis of important revelations bearing on Israel/Palestine that are contained in the ongoing dump of hundreds of thousands of U.S. State Department cables. Alex Kane will be preparing these reports (when he is not in Israel/Palestine himself). Without further ado, Part I, The Palestine Cables...
The revelations from the classified State Department cables being published by WikiLeaks and news organizations keep coming, and there's no shortage of items concerning Israel/Palestine."
"One cable, dated September 5, 2006 and sent from the U.S. embassy in Dublin, reports that the Irish government "has informally begun to place constraints on U.S. operations at the facility, mainly in response to public sensitivities
over U.S. actions in the Middle East." Specifically, the cable states that the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs decided to "forbid U.S. military transits carrying munitions to Israel" because of "the Irish public's overwhelming opposition to Israeli military actions in Lebanon."
