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

B'nai Brith Canada found that several advisers to the CMHR Nakba exhibit justified or minimized Hamas's October 7 attacks. The review, obtained exclusively by The Jerusalem Post, names Rana Abdulla and Ramsey Zeid, president of CPAM, who contributed content. CPAM posted statements such as 'stop condemning October 7' and a graphic accusing Israeli forces of skinning dead Palestinians and stealing organs, classified as blood libel under IHRA. B'nai Brith calls on CMHR to clarify CPAN's influence and review procedures.

B'nai Brith Canada conducted a review, obtained exclusively by The Jerusalem Post, of the Nakba exhibit at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights (CMHR). The exhibit, titled 'Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present', opened on June 27, 2026, and has been criticized for not labeling Hamas as a terrorist organization and for referring to the Second Intifada as a 'Palestinian uprising' without mentioning over 1,000 Israelis murdered. The review found that several advisers involved in shaping the exhibit, including Rana Abdulla and Ramsey Zeid, president of CPAM, have justified or minimized the October 7 attacks. CPAM posted content such as 'stop condemning October 7' and a graphic accusing Israeli forces of skinning dead Palestinians and stealing organs, which B'nai Brith classifies as blood libel under the IHRA definition. B'nai Brith calls on CMHR to be transparent about CPAN's influence and to explain how advisers' public records were reviewed.
