In Kentucky, prosecutors are asking a Louisville judge to silence any discussion of genocide or Israel’s assault on Palestinians ahead of the June trial of five activists who were arrested last year as they blocked entrances to plants operated by Raytheon and BAE Systems, which supply weapons to the Israeli military. The motion also seeks to bar defendants from wearing Palestinian keffiyehs and from holding protests in the vicinity of the courthouse.
