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.

  • It is a shame that anyone should be driven from their home. To then list that home on Airbnb is adding insult to injury and can only aggravate an already volatile situation. Please remove all such listings asap.

  • Stop listing illegal properties! Each evil and violence delivers only new evil and violence! No one will be happy!

  • It’s a disgrace on the part of airbnb! Have they ever looked at videos where Palestinian houses are destroyed by bulldozers? Have they seen the faces of the people displaced? What do they say about the children who have no place to call home? I call on airbnb to stop this practice IMMEDIATELY!

  • When the occupation is unanimously undisputed, it is disrespectful to the displaced to encourage commerce that is complicit to their continuing enforced displacement.

    Do we really need to pay and support such occupation?

    Let the occupying fend for themselves.

  • Dear Airbnb, as a valued service provider, we urge you to take a principled stand and not support lodging in properties in the occupied West Bank – this enables people to profit further from a serious abuse of human rights.

  • I found the hosts kinda racist. They didn’t seem to know anything about what was on the other side of the wall. Promised access to their bike, but turned out it was an exercise-in-futility bike.

  • Way to go profiting from war crimes and illegal occupation!

  • Have been using airbnb for 4 years and this is the first listing that I am giving a 0/5. It violates international law and basic human rights! I would never rent a home built on land that was illegally stolen from Palestinians.”

  • I particularly liked being able to wash my hands with the tears of homeless Palestinian children flowing from the taps…

  • Staying at an illegal settlement makes you as guilty as the repugnant illegal settler.

    • 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.
