Input: Dutch anti-Islam politician Geert Wilders went on trial Monday for alleged hate speech  even as his popularity and influence in the Netherlands are near all time highs.
 Prosecutors say Wilders incited hatred against Muslims with remarks comparing Islam to Naziism and by calling for a ban on the Quran. Wilders argues he has a right to freedom of speech and his remarks were within the bounds of the law.
 If convicted  he faces up to a year in prison. He could keep his seat in parliament.
 On his Twitter account  Wilders said the start of his trial was a "terrible day."
 "The freedom of expression of at least 1.5 million people is standing trial together with me " he wrote  referring to the voters that made his Freedom Party the third-largest in national elections in June.
 But his lawyer  Bram Moszkowicz  told presiding judge Jan Moors at the start of the trial that Wilders would not answer questions during the trial.

 "My client will  at my advice  exercise his right to silence today  tomorrow and the other days " Moszkowicz said. Moors then adjourned the case to consider a request from Wilders to explain his decision not to speak.
 He swept into the Amsterdam District Court complex in a police convoy and waved to supporters as he walked into the courtroom at the start of a trial scheduled to last seven days.
 Mohamed Rabbae  chairman of the moderate National Moroccan Council  said outside the court that he hoped judges would force Wilders to issue an apology for his past remarks.
 "We are not for getting Mr. Wilders in prison. We are for correcting him " he said.
