DataPipe doesn't host the site any more Chimp, as of the end of last month, so no US based corp is losing money on this.

*cough!*
The article says "end of THE month", implying the end of THIS month, since the article was written a few days ago. Chances are, DataPipe's network can't handle these kinds of attacks (especially a DoS attack that lasts a few days), and was having service interupted for all the other customers.
So, the hackers weren't only affecting Al Jazeera's site, but every other site hosted by DataPipe. How courteous.
But then again, how dare DataPipe host that dirty Arab news to begin with!
