Through fees earned from settlement vacation rentals, you will also help Airbnb profit from the continuing occupation and dispossession of Palestinians.

Hope can justify profiting from this? Profit must not come at all costs.
Vultures do the same, but only to stay alive.,,,,,:-((
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge” …
Shame on Airbnb for participating in the perpetuation of a terrible tragedy against Palestinian people.
It’s simply wrong to steal from Palestinian neighborhoods. There has to be a development of respectful and lawful attitudes toward Palestinians.
This is immoral
If this is an example of the kind of property that Airbnb is happy to list, I won’t be availing myself of their services ever again.
Is it not interestinbnb pay tax from their g that this company simply ignores international law and UN resolutions on Palestinian land. To which state do the said Airnb owners pay tax on their ill gotten gains?
Seriously, what is wrong w/ your company?
