Um, he's right. ICBMs enter low earth orbit during their flight path, about 750 miles in altitude. They release decoy warheads, chaff, or even balloon warheads at that altitude. Read an article on ICBMs it will answer your questions. I'm a little skeptical of the whole "EMP" fairytale. Military systems are generally hardened with key components in faraday cages, and I'm super skeptical an EMP that high in the atmosphere would really knock out 100% of systems in real life.
