That sophistamacated Pentagon communications system

It's understandable that commentators would focus on the geopolitical implications of this story from the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz:

The United States has asked Israel to check the possibility of pumping oil from Iraq to the oil refineries in Haifa. The request came in a telegram last week from a senior Pentagon official to a top Foreign Ministry official in Jerusalem.

But our question is: they still use telegrams at the Pentagon?
