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 will not use airbnb until this stops
Appalling lack of respect for international justice.
I boycott all Israeli products and my conscience forbids me travelling to the country.
It won’t be surprising I won’t be using AirBnb anywhere until they withdraw from Palestine.
I don’t know what these people will have to say when they’re standing before God.
This is one of the reasons I boycott Isreali products. Their record on human rights is shameful.
I will avoid using Airbnb until they remove these kind of listings.
if you do not stop this I am never again going to rent an apartment in airbnb
Airbnb just don’t care about anything. Remember those snarky adverts about tax in san fransisco. And their logo looks like a kind of weird vagina bum.
It is illegal for occupiers to exploit homes on occupied territory. Israel should retreat to within the internationally recognised borders and leave Palestina to the Palestinians!
I could hardly believe it when I read this info. How is it even possible for you to do something like this? Don’t you have any ethical compass at all? I will avoid using Airbnb in the future.
