Has anyone ever heard of the “National Geospacial-Intelligence Agency?

Sent to us by a reader.

NGA is a super-secret agency who has been utilizing SPY SATELLITES for the past 45 years to spy on Americans. It’s a fact. This information is then transmitted to the CIA, DARPA, NAVEL INTELLIGENCE, FBI, et al.

This agency was employed to spy on the Branch Davidians months before the seige at Waco, Tx.  

99% of the american people have no idea what form of government we are living under.

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) delivers world-class geospatial intelligence that provides a decisive advantage to policymakers, warfighters, intelligence professionals and first responders.

Anyone who sails a U.S. ship, flies a U.S. aircraft, makes national policy decisions, fights wars, locates targets, responds to natural disasters, or even navigates with a cellphone relies on NGA.

NGA enables all of these critical actions and shapes decisions that impact our world through the indispensable discipline of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT).

  1. Yes, I’ve known about them. Just another arm of our Glorious Imperial Legions who “fight for our freedom.” A related agency is the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO).

    I’m sure they claim they don’t use their spy satellites to spy on Americans. I’m also sure they’re about as honest as the NSA in that regard.

    It should be noted that there are physical limitations on how much can be seen with any long-range telescope or imaging device, including those on satellites. Without getting into too much detail, a rough rule of thumb is that there’s a trade-off between how much resolution a sensor has and its ability to “see” through obstacles such as cloud cover.

    The rumors we sometimes hear about spy satellites that can “read the headlines on a newspaper you’re holding” are BS. If satellites were THAT good, the military wouldn’t have such a hunger for surveillance drones (which have limitations of their own).

    Here’s a fairly recent (November 2010) military manual in PDF format that contains good information about various sensors, including a summary of their capabilities and limitations:

    It would be a very good idea to download and read this manual.

  2. Well no I didn’t know about them.
    These spy and alphabet agencies will eventually eat each other fighting over what’s left of the taxpayers bones.
    FBI hates DHS.
    DHS hates CIA.
    CIA hates DEA.
    DEA hates DOE.
    BLM hates DOI.
    DOI hates IRS.
    IRS hates CIA.
    NSA hates FBI.
    There’s only so much meat left to chew on people.
    They really need to change their business model and get rid of some of these worthless agencies and consolidate.
    Now we have…
    NGIA
    Which is a four letter word….
    Sorry….
    I mean acronym.
