And in Cities that have not been hit, Refugees will stream out in anticipation of an Attack.

"Dirty Bomb" Could Contaminate Whole Cities in Wake of US Attack

Vienna, September 21
Terrorists may try to contaminate whole cities by making a "dirty bomb" out of a combination of radioactive materials and conventional weapons, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said on Friday.
"It is entirely imaginable," said David Kyd, the spokesman of the International Atomic Energy Agency. He spoke after the organisation adopted a resolution at its annual general assembly underlining the necessity of extra steps to protect nuclear plants.
The Vienna-based agency, which the United States sees as a bedrock of nuclear safety, adopted the resolution as Washington counted the cost of last week's terrorist attacks on New York and Washington which cost thousands of lives.
Kyd stressed that a so-called "dirty bomb" -- which incorporates radioactive material in a conventional explosive -- so far has never been used by terrorists "or even by Saddam Hussein".
Kyd said that if such a bomb were used the city or town affected would be uninhabitable.
"The bomb would contaminate with radioactivity the area in which it detonates. It could affect the ability of a population to live in the area until it is decontaminated."
