Stealing West Bank homes from Arabs so rich people can have a 2nd or 3rd home? How do you sleep nights?
I’d be sickened to stay here, thinking of a company and private individuals making a profit off the suffering of others.
This is horrible!~
Its an unethical position Air BnB is taking in listing hosts in illegal settlements.
This beggars belief. It is appalling
No stars. I had to trip over the things left behind by the original Palestinian owners that the Israelis hadn’t bothered to clean up when they occupied the house. Also, there were clear signs of the violence that ensued during the take-over.
There also was an air of sadness around the place because of what went on. I will not be staying there again.
Disgusting. Can’t believe it’s happening. I was thinking of signing our holiday accommodation up with AirBnb but not anymore.
Wow! So great to see you making so much money on such a righteous cause…. Supporting the theft of others property, insuring the ones doing the stealing make even more money. Looks like you are in the same league as our bankster, wall street friends. Fraud, theft, psychopathy well rewarded. Capitalism at it’s finest! I thought AirbnB was for the “PEOPLE”… Looks like only some…
This land stealing is immoral
Disgusting and oppressive
