1. (S) Following are Embassy Rabat's comments on the
Section 1206 FY07 proposals involving Morocco.


2. (S) Post supports the Maritime Security and Safety
Information System (MSSIS) portion of the "African Maritime
Security Capability and Capacity Improvements" proposal, as
long as activities in Morocco are limited to:

Mobile training and construction teams combined with
regularly scheduled ship port visits installing towers,
mounting Automated Identification Systems (AIS) sets and
displays, loading software and performing 2-3 days of
software system operator training.


3. (S) Post supports in principle the proposal to "Improve
Partner National Military Intelligence," but requests that
all related activities be closely vetted with post before
implementation to help ensure clear communication of the
proposal to the Government of Morocco and that activities in
Morocco be limited to:

Establishing a capability to develop training courses for
Moroccan military intelligence organizations in the following
areas:

-- Techniques and procedures to collect, analyze, process,
and report military intelligence on terror groups, entities,
individuals, and collaborators.

-- Procedures for exchanging intelligence on terror threats
with other partner nations and the United States.

-- Processes for regional cooperation and intelligence
sharing.

Deploying mobile training teams to train Moroccan military
intelligence organizations.
