Krypton Invasion is DCCU's 9/11?

Is the Zod led Kryptonian Invasion in MOS, the DC cinematic universe version of 9/11?

A seismic type event that sets all the following results in motion? I mean the parallels to 9/11 were strong in Man of Steel. They seem to be taking it even further in Batman v Superman. The imagery is very evocative of that real life event. Especially that heroic and defiant image of Bruce running into the dust cloud of a collapsible building to save people. Memorial statues, etc.

And I think it's genius, organic story telling to go very meta and use the polarizing views of Man of Steel and Superman himself from audiences / critics as the jumping off point for motivations of the other characters in the DCCU to come together, dealing with Superman etc and to interact.

I mean Bruce's point of view on Superman being the cause of the destruction seemingly guides his actions taken against Kal El, similar to how a cynical skeptic hater would view Superman at the climax of Man of Steel.
