FIFA president Joseph S. Blatter agrees to Make Goals Not War!

I finally got to meet with FIFA president Joseph S. Blatter, one of the world’s most powerful and influential figures. Mr. Blatter and I talked about how football can be an instrument for peace. It was great to see we were in total agreement over the sport’s potential to make the world a better place.

Mr. Blatter told me he thought Make Goals Not War’s objective to outlaw war and resolve international conflicts was a wonderful idea. He added that football would be better than war because football has a referee, clear rules, and a fixed time limit and geographical boundary that would ensure a fair combat.

Moreover Mr. Blatter offered that FIFA would host a football match when any two countries are on the verge of going to war. I’m so happy that FIFA has thrown its support behind Make Goals Not War.

Now that the fans, players, the United Nations, the politicians, and FIFA support the objective of Make Goals Not War, we are so much closes to making it happen. Nothing can stop us now!
