The Danish government should do a lot of things. The government should apologize.

I was greatly encouraged to launch this initiative after 93 per cent of some 80,000 Muslim youths polled opted for a dialogue with the Danish people.

They will explain four main things: who our Prophet is, what Islam is all about, freedom of expression in Muslim eyes and respect of the other's holy scriptures. They [young Muslims] will launch practical projects entrenching mutual respect and co-existence.

The reasonable among us must be heard and our voices must come out clearer than the voices of the extremists.

Dialogue and many practical common projects are more important. We came here to build bridges but it must be two-way bridges.

We feel there are forces of extremism which are aiming to light fires and transform Denmark from a peaceful country to a country which will suffer from conflicts.
