Oh man, I don't want to get deep into all the politics involved, but man, this reads like complete non-sense:
The outage comes following Iranian attacks on the UAE as retaliation for US and Israeli strikes on Iran.
If they did specifically target US corporations in UAE, that would make some amount of sense as direct retaliation.
I guess, you can also attack UAE and hope that they pressure the US to stop invading.
But in any case, this seems like a really good way to drag more nations into the conflict, or at least to force them to become active, which is not in the interest of Iran.
