U.S. plans $7 billion missile-defense sale to UAE

"The Bush administration is planning to sell the United Arab Emirates an advanced U.S. missile defense system valued at up to $7 billion that could be used to defend against Iran, people who have attended briefings on the matter said on Monday."

Interesting wording - the Iranians have never attacked anyone, unlesss it was in retaliation for an attack against them. So, why would the UAE need an "advanced U.S. missile defense system" specifically to defend against Iran?
