I was wondering the same thing. My assumption would be that either:

1) The US has nothing to gain by taking down the internet infrastructure via malicious means.

or

2) The US has better access to these systems to take them out directly rather than forcing them down via DDOS attacks.

I think both. This sort of thing would be extremely disruptive to our economy.

I have no doubt, however, that we likely have developed plans around this sort of thing in a defensive or response capacity.
