Answer:

The events of September 11 caused Zeitoun to confront Hurricane Katrina not only as a natural disaster but also as a cultural conflict because he was arrested and considered suspect when he was only helping the victims of the hurricane.

Explanation:

ABdulrahman Zeitoun, a middle-aged Syrian-American after Hurricane Katrina, decided to rescue an old aluminum canister that was his garage and runs through the neighborhood, helping those who were stranded by the flood that the storm caused .

This voluntary rescue became routine, and for a week he worked hard to turn the small vessel into an extension of official support for the victims of the catastrophe, until the intervention of military and paramilitary troops, including Blackwater mercenary agents and thousands of men uniformed and armed to the teeth, abruptly interrupts Zeitoun's activities. He is imprisoned in a place that very much resembles the gloomy Guantanamo, without any justification, just for having Syrian Lebanese descent, and without the right to make a phone call to the woman.

Zeitoun's experience after Katrina would have been very different if the events of 9/11 had never happened instead of being a hero for helping Zeitoun was regarded was suspicion and even arrested.
