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

The space:
The stolen home includes views of the West Bank Apartheid Wall.

Access is for non-Palestinian guests only. Guests with Arab-sounding names will be subject to additional scrutiny by settlement security.

Airnb -This is NOT (your) RIGHT (to do)!!!
I urge ALL to not participate in these rentals!
This is a disgusting way to earn money, when it is clear you make plenty in legally built accommodations!
Seems like you could not get away with your shameful plans. Seems like there are people out there who actually care. Seems like you guys have to actually do the right. Now.
Neither me or my friends will use airbnb again until you have stopped supporting the apartheid.
This is a fantastic place to get away from having to be a global citizen, to step outside of your conscience and not care about anyone but yourself! Some drawbacks are, for some reason there seems to be a great deal of unrest in this local, I being a giant douche bag am unable to put my finger on it. A neibouring AirBnber seems to have fled his site, judging from the smoke from his windows it must have been an electrical issue. With fingers crossed I’m hoping to occupy this site with no reasonable grounds for as long as possible! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars and
It is despicable to flout International Law and make stolen land in an occupied territory vacation spots. Any decent human being will reject this hideous opportunity to use these disgraceful homes and stand with all peoples and not oppressors of people. AirBnb should withdraw from this or pay for such blatant disregard for International Law and human decency…
If you don’t, then you are profiting off theft, and you are a thief. Are you thieves?
Take a stand or I shall be deleting and never using my Airbnb account again as I don’t want to use the services provided by theives nor help them profit off theft.
I have admired airbnb as an ethical way of encouraging people to people tourism. To learn that you are accepting requests for housing in illegally occupied land greatly disappoints me. would you also take accommoation offers from ISIL controlled territory or Syria. Think it through and p[lease decline the requests for listings from the occupied territories and other ethically dubious hosuing.
You really take the piss.
Illegal and immoral. No-one should deal with you, Airbnb
