Description
Overview:
Stay at your own vacation rental, located in an illegal settlement and in violation of international law. Support structural discrimination and theft of Palestinians’ land. Through fees earned from settlement vacation rentals, you will also help Airbnb profit from the continuing occupation and dispossession of Palestinians.
The Neighbourhood:
This home is located in an illegal Jewish-only settlement. These settlements are built by Israel on Palestinian land it has occupied since 1967, and are considered illegal under international law.
The space:
The stolen home includes views of the West Bank Apartheid Wall.
Guest Access:
Access is for non-Palestinian guests only. Guests with Arab-sounding names will be subject to additional scrutiny by settlement security.
House rules
All those would could be perceived as Arabs must be accompanied by armed guards while in the Settlement, for their own protection.

I was going to use airbnb for my next trip until I saw this . I would never knowingly contribute to the sort of systematic abuse Israel is guilty of committing against the Palestinian people.
This is a Crime Against Humanity.
I can’t believe airbnb would do business with an illegal, immoral group of miscreants such as the like that must be involved here .
They either have not bothered to inform themselves about the situation there or they are in agreement with that behavior.
Despicable on both counts.
Shame on you airbnb
I will not use your site to book any accommodation because of listings such as this. I will tell everyone I know to boycott your site. Please be more socially responsible and I will return to Airbnb
A good presentation of the situation, but why is it unrecognised by the world?
Want to know one large reason why there’s so much anti-Israel sentiment in the world? It’s the theft of homes and farmlands. Give these back to the people who lived there!
Won’t be staying at an Airbnb property till they adhere to the basic courtesy of removing listings based on occupied territories. Be a good corporate citizen.
This practice violates international law and basic human rights! Thinking people would never rent a home built on land that was illegally stolen from Palestinians, you are obviously not a thinking company. Please remove these listings that legitimize Israeli occupation of stolen land and deliver massive profits off the back of the Palestinian people.
The fact that criminal acts have been performed to get this property makes me rethink the Israel/USA relationship. War crimes will come home to roost.
Illegal…immoral…beyond contempt
what goes around comes around = real shitty karma
Absolutely disgusting.
