9/11 attacked the Twin Towers and the Pentagon. The hurricane and its flooding attacked every building in New Orleans.
Had 9/11 been similar to our napalm attacks on Tokyo, there would be no New York. The times and its staff would have been burned to a crisp.
In New Orleans five days after the hurricane the city is still only accessible by interstate from the west. There are very few roads into and out of New Orleans. There are far more routes into and out of New York than there are in New Orleans.

A silver lining in the clouds.
