„Our goal is to address people in the whole world <strong>and</strong> to enable<br />
them to see the peaceful truth coming out of our civilization <strong>and</strong><br />
religion <strong>and</strong> thus to stop spreading of the negative media<br />
image.<br />
Our goal is to address Muslims <strong>and</strong> Arabs in a way respecting<br />
their cultural heritage. We want to help them to feel equal to the<br />
other nations so that they can develop into a civilization which<br />
will enrich the surrounding world <strong>and</strong> not only take from it.“<br />
