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.

  • Horrified that someone is allowed to profit from criminal activities and that AirBnB would facilitate this. Shame on you AirBnB. What’s next? Marketing stolen cars, proceeds of a bank raid or pimping for prostitutes?

  • One of the worst examples of neo-colonial/imperialist measures taken by Israel. Every action is unavoidably followed by a reaction. Have they forgotten the history of the Jewish people? Present-day leaders of Israel are shameless criminals. Why isn’t there a reaction against all this inside the country? I am puzzled…

  • I love AirBnb, but this is totally abhorrent to use stolen Palestinian land and promote it as a holiday destination. Shame on you. I’m ashamed to be Jewish.

  • Shame on you Airbnb-taking advantage of other people’s misfortune, rubbing their noses in it, acting illegally and all with aid of govt funding! Who do you think will stay when they know the truth?

  • No decent human being would touch this property with a barge pole. To rent such a place is to collude with thieves and thugs who show no regard for the rights of others and scant concern for international law. I would never stay in such a place and consider the advertising of it to be an affront to civilised behaviour.

  • I’ve used Airbnb in 20 cities and five countries, but this is wholly inappropriate, unjust, and feeds a situation that makes the Middle East less secure, rather than more

  • Perhaps ‘Air – break – n – enter’
    would be more appropriate.

  • Hopefully it will help people SEE what they are renting! RIGHT ON!

  • This is outrageous. You are war criminals, some day you will be asked to pay for your crimes. You occupiers have lost the moral high ground, and consequently you have lost the support of the world. I would not patronized your ill gotten gains at any cost.

    • About the host, Airbnb

    Last year alone Airbnb made almost $1 billion in revenue, and Airbnb is worth a whopping $24 billion. Yet, Airbnb continues to make a profit from homes located in illegal housing settlements in occupied territory.
