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

how do you people sleep at night, promoting this type of ‘business’….making money off of other people’s ruined lives?? you’ve lost your morality and humanity. WAKE UP..STOP IT!
No, I won’t be staying there. Such a shame, I hear AirBnB is great way to travel, but not when people’s homes and land have been stolen to accommodate people on vacation. Profit over morals?! I think not!!!
This is offensive and a violation of international human rights.
Airbnb,
Never under any circumstances would I rent holiday accommodation from a company which profits from the sheer rubble of Palestinian homes, devastated by Israeli incursion into Palestinian home-land.
I would never recommend staying in with squatters (they aren’t “settlers”) in a squatter camp (they aren’t “settlements”). What is an “illegal settlement”? It is a squatter camp.
Really guys you won’t lose that much money by sacking off Israel. Taking the humble route is often the best way and one can at least hold their head high despite their pocket being a little lighter. .
Great opportunity to stay in land stolen from an oppressed people. You never got to experience apartheid or fascism first hand, well this is your lucky day -stay in the stolen Occupied Territories, with your AirBnb hosts.
wake up! peace for all! apartheid is not the answer
I was extremely disappointed by this listing because I believe it goes against the core value of AirBnB. The beauty of AirBnB is that it brings people together; this, however, is supporting a system that discriminates and tears people apart.
