Satellite surveillance has been quite effective since the advent of the x-ray capability. In the late 80's, we pioneered the use of such capability on a probe to Venus.
It allowed photography of areas previously unseen under cloud cover. Does anyone doubt that this technology was developed for national security? Or do you think it was only used for NASA to see Venus?

I love NASA!!! It is unreal all the invention we got from space exploration!

It is sometimes very understandable why people like Saddam hate us so much. Ever see the temper tantrum a 6 year old will have if you 'watch' him do something; then he tries to lie about it? Pretty accurate comparison, huh? ;)
