Simply outrageous!
No decent or fair minded person would want to stay in property that has been taken illegally from it’s rightful owners.
Great to occupy this home now that it is no longer the shtettel. I enjoyed sitting on the ancestral land of Palestinians whose remains lie under the ground where I sip my morning tea and look out over the occupied territory where families struggle and die at the hands of Israeli occupiers. It is nice to reminisce about other historical occupations and persecutions as I enjoy my time in a stolen home. So nice not to have gas chambers and do this in a civilized way.
It is unconscionable to list properties that were stolen from Palastinians. Such listings should not happen. Period.
I am an AirBnB host myself. AirBnB needs to stop this unethical immoral behavior now.
You should be ashamed of taking part in apartheid and profiting off of it! This is occupied territory. Take this home off the site immediately!
Barbaric!!!!!!!
It is a crime to steal and then profir from the proceeds also
Airbnb you need to stop what you are doing. You are profitting off these homes that were stolen from the people that used to own them. Shame on you. You as a company should be ashamed of yourself by taking advantage of other people’s misfortunes. Hopefully some day misfortune might fall on you and that you will also know the feeling of being taken advantage of, as well!
