The founder of Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East, a prominent anti-Israel group in Canada, resigned from his post in late December, citing ongoing opposition to his leadership “as a non-Palestinian” among activists.
In a lengthy goodbye email to supporters, founder and president Thomas Woodley says that since the October 7 Hamas attacks on Israel, the anti-Israel activist movement has come to see Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) as illegitimate because of its non-Palestinian leadership.
