The Gulen Chair holder at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, Prof. Johan Leman highly values education and the Gulen Movement is the right partner for him to work with.

Fethullah Gulen is again recognized for his positive contribution to dialogue and education. This is highlighted again with a documentary on Greek television through the ERT station. This is particularly pleasing as historically friction has existed between the two countries, and Gulen's thought on dialogue have contributed to the 2 communities coming together. This is best represented by the warm dialogue that commenced with Bartholomew.

Among all the rumours in media we sometimes miss the truth. This article sheds light on some aspects of the story of PKK’s willingness to approach the Gulen Movement.

Fethullah Gulen is a global intellectual and the proof of that is his work. Mr. Gulen has more than 60 books published in Turkish and many of those have been translated to other languages. His unique approach to the life of Islam’s Prophet Muhammed (Peace be Upon Him) was published as “Sonsuz Nur” or “Infinite Light.” It is now available in Zulu which is spoken in South Africa and four other countries.

It has become a common strategy among those who expect to be prosecuted for corruption to hide behind slander. Latest in the series is a former intelligence officer who alleged CIA’s presence in world-wide web of Turkish Schools. His inference is based on a plea from a Turkish School official who merely asks for government support and gives the US and other countries as example. Disinformation at its best…

The latest example of never-ending conspiracy saga against the Gulen Movement and its inspirer came from Turkey. A simple journalistic meeting between daily Zaman columnist Huseyin Gulerce and the lawyers of terrorist PKK’s leader quickly translated as “cooperation between two movements.” Although the two have nothing in common, there are huge differences in philosophies, and Gulen inspired institutions have targeted many times by the PKK terrorists, some media members shamelessly try to create a repulsive relationship image between peaceful Gulen Movement which is known as the biggest social movement in the history of Turkey and a Marxist terrorist group that has been shedding innocent blood for almost five decades.

Belgium’s Catholic University of Leuven established a Fethullah Gulen chair in consistence with Mr. Gulen’s work. The university officials refer to the new chair as a “source of pleasure.” The chair also shows the importance of Fethullah Gulen’s contributions to intercultural coexistence efforts around the world.

Gulen-Inspired schools are not just “foreign investments” in more than 100 countries, but they are valuable institutions contributing to their respective countries in many ways. Cultivating a generation of global intellectuals and opening new windows to global opportunities, especially in developing countries, are among the biggest benefits these schools provide.
