All this talk about Terry Waite and NSA satellites forgets that NSA is in the electronic intelligence business, not the picture taking business. The latter is the CIA's and NRO's domain. Chances are that the news report was based on some intercepted electronic communication (e.g., mobile radio, microwave telephone link) having to do with Waite. Perhaps the NSA should start an agressive campaign to export cellular telephone systems to countries like Lebanon. :-) Phil
