Not to mention that there are solid state components that are RADHARD and would not be effected by an EMP.

Agreed, but they are by far the exception and almost entirely limited to military apps.

Bottom line is, if it has a chip in it (and what doesn't these days - in the US) EMP will fry it. Omar's camel doesn't depend on a chip to start, nor his well to supply water.

On the other hand, I understand we got some very nice results from carbon fiber bombs in Kosovo (from public sources, of course).
