This young man, more courageous than I, reached the same conclusion I did. US soccer participation proves that US soldiers are not better in soccer, only better at killing. He does not want to be good at killing people. You can see him today in Democracy Now!.
I reached the same conclusion, once young people realize that being American does not give them a blank check to kill citizens of other countries, their commitment to join the Army diminishes.
Soccer and war are related. It is better to fight it off in a civilized way without having to kill each other.
Once Americans see themselves as any other person on earth, they will feel less justified in joining an imperialist war.
Maybe that is why the media does not support American kids to compete in soccer.
