NSA is signals intelligence and satellite, they do encyption work and are supposed to share information. They also interpret that data. But as I've pointed out before, they are not a field agency. Sat technology has been greatly exagerated and it can't cover every area of the world at once. Signals intelligence works but communication technology that the Taliban used was curtailed after Bin Laden smartened up and stopped using sat radios and long range UHF/VHF and went to a courier system.
Its kind of funny that you talk about Missad, as they've formed a relationship with the Pakistani ISI and mostly depend on them to gather information in Afghanistan.
