Big chess game with these ME countries.  Maybe we let them keep the missiles as long as they stay incased.

Hell, we already told 'em that if they use it we'll nuke 'em. What more could you ask for?

"Here Johnny Jihad, you go ahead and keep your single shot derringer, but if you shoot it at anybody just remember that we've got our minigun with a laser rangefinder, gps guidance, FLIR scope, forward mounted on an Apache attack helicopter, with a compass in the stock aimed at your face. Now run along and play now."

Quoted:
A sovereign  country shipping missiles to another sovereign nation.

How does that differ from the USA shipping missiles to Israel?

It doesn't. Perfectly legal under international law. Frankly, I'm surprised the US decided to obey the law in this case. I kinda figgered it'd be business as usual. We must be up to something. As others have said, you can bet there'll be an "eye in the sky" on this load....

Maybe letting the ship go to Yemen is the US Government's way of apologizing for attacking al-queda on yemeni soil without their permission.
