Due to his strong emphasis on free speech and anti-Islam policy, Wilders has strong political enemies. His main opponents are Alexander Pechtold  (from [[Democrats 66|D66]], a liberal socialist party), Jesse Klaver (from the socialist GroenLinks) and Lodewijk Asscher (from PVDA, the Dutch labor party). In addition, his strong views on Islam have caused many attempts on his life, and as such he has been under permanent police protection since 2004.
