Airbnb Violates Its Own Anti-Discrimination Policy

Apparently Airbnb's anti-discrimination policy does not apply to Palestinians in the illegally occupied West Bank.

 

On Aug 19 Airbnb articulated why it was no longer listing rentals in the illegally occupied West Bank.

But the other day reversed its decision evidently putting profits over principles. Shameful.

 

"Our policy will not be implemented. The company will continue its dialogue with the Israeli government."

 

Shouldn't Palestinians be part of the dialogue? After all it is their land which is being illegally occupied and populated by settlers causing a gradual displacement of the indigenous population.
