Utterly disgusting!!
this is stolen Palestinian land and has caused a lot of pain and suffering to a lot of people. Bring back what is rightfully theirs and stop your business here! remember your ethos!! follow it!
Despicable. I attempted to book a property in France last year and was not treated very well as they did not confirm my booking and did not respond to my complaint. I wasted time and money so refuse to use them again. Now I find out about this it is even worse! Obviously a company with a poor choice of values and no respect!
This is absolutely disgusting.
I think the idea of trying to rent places on land stolen from Palestinian families is obscene. Such a dreadful idea. How can anyone be so cruel. I just do not understand it and would never, ever consider renting one.
Offensive!! Is there no end to this outrageous grabbing of land from Palestinians? Presumably not..then how can the region ever expect to see a cessation of hostilities & peaceful coexistence, if the Israeli’s pursue such a heartless & illegal policy by removing Palestinians from their rightful territory. You have alienated so many of us with your actions. Shame on you.
Understand you are living and residing in Palestine. Stay and live as Palestinians, or leave.
This is stolen land, illegally occupied. What is not clear to you Airbnb?
Just don’t do it, it is immoral and wrong.
Sounds delightful for anyone without a conscience, sense of justice and a belief in Human Rights. Not for me then, I Pass.
Along with my friends, I have happily used AirBnB a few times and have even recommended it to my friends. As long as AirBnB continue to profit from apartheid in illegal settlements, I will no longer use them and have already informed my friends via social media about this disgusting practice. Like me, they have grave concerns about this moral issue. Please do the right thing and stop this right now.
