I'm pretty sure they went through ICANN, which would absolutely (and should) support taking down criminals and criminal services from the internet, that they control. There are international laws and treaties. I don't think you'll find too many countries who would agree that it's ok to sell DDoS services. There is no legitimate use for them. Are you suggesting that that position is strictly an American one? I tend to think it's a global one...
