Strange story. Firstly, they don't seem to be shipping directly to Bahrain. Secondly, there seems to be concern about the Bahrain government. Does this mean it has already intercepted mail to US bases?

It shipped to an APO (Army Post Office) location where it gets processed by military mail personnel. They have to weed out things that are illegal in host countries before final delivery, so that’s where this got snagged. Sort of a pseudo-Customs check.
