No you can't.  It's perfectly legal for you to import it, so far as I know,
but you are absolutely NOT free to re-export it anywhere outside the USA,
nor to give it, in any way, to anyone inside the USA who isn't either a US
citizen or the holder of a green card.  This may seem silly to you -- it
does to me -- but it is the law.

Because it's illegal.  Clear on that?
