(Send a missile payload containing a bunch of ball bearings up to the appropriate orbit, in a counter-orbit to spy sats., then blow it. The kinetic kill will take out every sat in that orbital path. Only big draw-back is that the scrap will stay in orbit for perhaps hundreds of years... and prevent *anyone* from having working sats in those orbital areas for a LONG TIME to come....)

But think of the great meteor showers when those ball bearings reenter the atmosphere!
