Figures who justified October 7 advised CMHR Nakba exhibit, B'nai Brith finds – exclusive

A B'nai Brith Canada review, exclusively obtained by The Jerusalem Post, found that several advisors for the Canadian Museum for Human Rights' (CMHR) "Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present" exhibit have justified or minimized Hamas' October 7 massacre. The exhibit, which opened on June 27, 2026, has been criticized for not labeling Hamas as a terrorist organization and for its portrayal of the Second Intifada. Individuals like Rana Abdulla and Ramsey Zeid, associated with the Canadian Palestinian Association of Manitoba (CPAM), contributed to the exhibit. B'nai Brith highlighted Zeid's Instagram post stating, "Palestinians had the right to do what they did on Oct. 7," and CPAM's content urging to "stop condemning October 7." The review also noted CPAM's dissemination of content minimizing the abduction of Israeli civilians and promoting blood libels against Israelis. B'nai Brith called for transparency regarding the advisors' influence and CMHR's vetting process, stating, "The social media disseminations associated with Zeid, CPAM, and other members of PCAN demonstrate an inherent bias against and hostility towards the Jewish people and the State of Israel."
