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.

I was about to book my next holiday and use Airbnb for finding my perfect room. However I will no longer be doing this until Airbnb remove listings that are built on stolen land from the Palestinians. Airbnb should use its status and power in the social rental world and make a stand against illegal settlements.
As a host and guest with airbnb for several years, I am appalled that airbnb has agreed to list properties in illegal settlements on stolen Palestinian land.
Stealing is wrong. You will eventually pay for your crime.
I would never rent a home built on land that was illegally stolen, neither from Palestinians nor from anybody else. Shame on you, Airbnb!!!
Do not profit out of illegally occupied dwellings and the misery of the victims of this injustice.
Unethical
Criminal
Illegal
This is a shameful abuse of Palestinian land. Avoid this travesty of justice.
Disgusting, you will not be getting my custom again AirBNB
