Its targeted towards non-muslims to teach them about him and that he wasn't violent the way some people portray him.

I think you need to make clear that he was neither a warmonger as is commonly portrayed in western/nonmuslim media nor did he believe in non-violence like Gandhi. He was like many Prophets before him was sent to establish JUSTICE amongst his people and to bring them to the faith of Abraham(pbuh) he tried to do it as much as possible by avoiding warfare and by negotiating treaties and alliances( Traety of Medina and Huddaibiyah, you can even quote the clauses that give freedom of worship to jews, christians etc) but sometimes given the violent nature of opposition against him it was neccessary to take uparms against his enemies.But also mention the way warfare was conducted by him in contrast with his enemies( After Badr Pagan Pows are released, but even then Pagan women mutilate muslim corpses in Uhad)
