Through fees earned from settlement vacation rentals, you will also help Airbnb profit from the continuing occupation and dispossession of Palestinians.

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.

How could my family and I enjoy staying in a home that is built on stolen land? By doing so, we would be complicit in the theft and that would be intolerable! This home should be taken off any listings by Airbnb, as should all other homes built on stolen land.
I will not use airbnb anymore. I’m appalled to find it listing illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian territory. I will also encourage my friends to boycott airbnb.
I would NEVER ever stay in an illegal settlement on land stolen from the Palestinians!
Please, stop any co-operation with those people and reestablish my respect!
To settle is to create, create is to do good, to do good is not what you’re doing.
This listing is a disgrace and Airbnb should suffer severe penalties for it.
Imagine what you would feel if your land was illegally occupied. Imagine what you would feel if your home was stolen. You then might realise why many people think you are cheating people for your own profit. However you are observed – the world is watching you
How can you profit from others loss.
Well obviously if land belongs to a country and that land is encroached upon this is an illegal and provocative act. And unfortunately is going to cause further stress.
