Perhaps you can break apart the query by using UNION (ALL). Something
like:
SELECT ...
FROM journal j
JOIN population2yaad_journal pg
ON (j.transaction_id=pj.insert_trans_id)
WHERE j.action = 'add_yaad'
OR j.action = 'delete_yaad'
OR j.action = 'change_yaad'
UNION ALL
SELECT ...
FROM journal j
JOIN population2yaad_journal pg
ON (j.transaction_id=pj.invalidate_trans_id)
WHERE (j.action = 'add_yaad'
OR j.action = 'delete_yaad'
OR j.action = 'change_yaad')
/* Prevent duplicates from UNION *ALL*: */
AND j.transaction_id <> pj.insert_trans_id
> However this does not use the indexes because of the OR in the INNER JOIN.

If this still doesn't work, then perhaps your indexes are not selective
enough or perhaps you need to ANALYZE your table.

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
