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

Walls divide, stop ‘building’ division’; start creating inclusiveness.
This is a disgusting act by AirBnB to list houses in Palestine that have been stolen from their rightful owners. How could any right thinking person stay in a house built on stolen land and the rubble of destroyed lives. Even worse, how could you look your host in the eye without feeling disgust and anger. My partner and I discovered AirBnB just last year and thought it was a wonderful idea and a great way to travel. However, since learning that you are supporting the suppression and persecution of the Palestinian people, we would be less likely to use your service.
These are illegal houses built on stolen land by a racist government.
Israel cannot live in peace while stealing Palestinian Land and torturing Palestinian Freedom Fighters.
Isn’t this listing illegal? You know, because Airbnb is STEALING PALESTINIAN LAND! This won’t be the first and it won’t be the last company I’ll boycot.
Test review
Sick
Please stop listing properties in Israeli settlements on occupied Palestinian land, considered illegal under international law.
Shocking! When jews will start to act as a human beings? They are the biggest racists on the world.
