Help Palestinian and Jewish Unity (PAJU) by becoming a member
For more than twenty years, we have organized weekly vigils in solidarity with Palestine and meet people where they are to tell them about it.

Palestinian and Jewish Unity –Independent Jewish Voices Montreal Joint Statement: DIVEST FROM SCOTIABANK!
Palestinian and Jewish Unity and Independent Jewish Voices Montreal call on clients of Scotiabank to divest from the bank and for the general public to boycott Scotiabank. As was the case in the campaign against apartheid in South Africa, it is at that point that banks and corporations profiting from investments in apartheid Israel face divestment and boycott, that they will divest from apartheid Israel and its criminal regime in Tel Aviv. Investments in Scotiabank mean investments in Elbit which translates to investments in apartheid and genocide. DIVEST FROM SCOTIABANK!
“Concentrate” and “exterminate”: Israel parliament deputy speaker’s Gaza genocide plan
Feiglin writes that the Israeli army must “designate certain open areas on the Sinai border, adjacent to the sea, in which the civilian population will be concentrated, far from the built-up areas that are used for launches and tunneling. In these areas, tent encampments will be established, until relevant emigration destinations are determined.”“Tent encampments,” where the Palestinian civilian population would be “concentrated,” are simply concentration camps.
Palestinians Returning to Khan Younis After Israeli Withdrawal Find an Unrecognizable City
Streams of Palestinians filed into the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis on Monday to salvage what they could from the vast destruction left in the wake of Israel’s offensive, a day after the Israeli military announced it was withdrawing troops from the area.Many came back to the Gaza Strip’s second-largest city to find their former hometown unrecognizable. With scores of buildings destroyed or damaged, piles of rubble now sit where apartments and businesses once did. Streets have been bulldozed. Schools and hospitals were damaged by the fighting.
Israel’s ‘Human Shields’ Lie
Israel isn’t being “forced” to kill Palestinian children, it is knowingly choosing to.The “human shields” narrative is just one more instance in which Israel pretends to be the victim while actually being the victimizer.They lied about beheaded babies so that they could get away with murdering babies. They lied about mass rapes so that they could get away with committing rape. They lied about Hamas using civilians as human shields so that they could kill civilians.They lie about being victims so that they can victimize.
Weaponizing antisemitism: the smearing of Yves Michaud
The reference to the censure of Yves Michaud, the use of antisemitism as a weapon, the refusal of François Legault to excuse the defamatory nature of the charges made against Yves Michaud in the National Assembly bring us to the continued use of antisemitism as a weapon and the continued vigorous support for Israelism shown by Premier Legault and his National Assembly colleagues at the outset of the conflict in Gaza, being a casebook example of a planned genocide via indiscriminate bombing of hospitals, clinics, cultural centers, mosques, churches, schools, residential buildings and a deliberate campaign of starvation in Gaza to the point of causing widespread malnutrition and even death.
Complicit in Genocide: Where Israel Gets Its Weapons From
Over 9,000 Palestinian women have been killed since the start of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip. Mothers have been the largest share of Israeli killings, at an average of 37 mothers per day since October 7.The numbers above, from the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza and the Red Crescent Society respectively, only convey part of the suffering experienced by 2.3 million Palestinians in the Strip.
