How could you profit by renting out property that was illegally taken from Palestinians including their orchards and fields.
Our family’s thoughts on the continual illegal taking of land by Israel as straight out steeling from the Palestian people. It is devious and immoral. Your country is certainly doing everything to gain the hostility of thinking, and honest people around the world. Your Government needs to stop this practise if you want to have any other Nationality in the world support you.
This illegal west bank settlement was just to die for. It was so clean and cosy it’s as if the owner was just desperate to wipe away the stain of institutionalised land theft and allow him to sleep deeply so as to escape the nightmares caused by the brutalisation and imprisonment of an entire race of people.
Who would even consider going and staying in such a place? There are some places, you just should not list for rent.
We are a retired couple who have recently become aware of airbnb. We have also been alerted to the fact that homes in Israel’s left bank are listed on this site. We would never consider renting a home built on land illegally stolen from Palestinians.
The occupation as well as settlements on Palestinian Land is ILLEGAL and the behaviour of fully armed occupiers against defenceless Palestinians is abhorrent… while most of “democratic world” has on occasions expressed empty phrases about a need for an independent Palestine they still tolerate double standards including keeping Palestinians behind walls and in concentration camp’ conditions… Sticking with occupiers and their lobbyists has huge consequences worldwide and Peace in Middle East is as far as ever…
Fair & Honest people around the world have to take initiative as politicians definitely sold us on this issue!
This listing is unethical, unconscionable.
I support Palestinians’ property rights, and also the rights of legitimate owners to list homes on AirBnb. Property taken from Palestinians unlawfully by a prejudiced, short-sighted regime can not be allowed to be listed on AirBnb. If it is, how can the public support the rights of legitimate property owners in places where the rights of homeowners to list on AirBnb is being challenged?
I am an airbnb host and am seriously reconsidering my position after hearing that you are advertising rooms for rent on occupied land. This is despicable. This brings shame on anyone associated with airbnb and my reputation is worth more than that.
That’s simply miserable.
