Unable to show the flag

I know the world cup means nothing to most of you, but take this little anecdotal story as a symbol of bigger issues.
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) - The official team bus to be used by the United States during the World Cup will not bear a flag for security reasons.

The 32 official buses were presented Thursday in Frankfurt and the other 31 buses have large national flags of the their teams painted on rear sides.
