John,
Israel’s armed forces and violent settlers are mercilessly killing
Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, razing entire neighbourhoods and
attacking refugee camps.
Sickeningly, travel giant Airbnb is profiting from these war crimes by
renting out luxury, pool-side properties on illegal settlements to
holiday-goers.
It isn’t just heinously immoral – it could also be illegal. And it ends
now.
Partners have just filed first-of-its-kind legal actions against Airbnb
exposing it for profiting off criminal activities. This is huge: it opens
the door for similar cases to follow, with major global consequences for
ALL corporations fuelling the displacement and genocide of Palestinians.
Lawsuits like this take major resources and our brilliant partners need
funding to take this case all the way. So here’s the plan: with all of us
chipping in we can rush our partners cash to help win this case – like
when we supported their major legal action to halt the UK’s arms sales to
Israel. Then we’ll keep going after corporate giants, one by one, until
the entire economy propping up the genocide of Palestinians comes
crumbling down.
It’s an ambitious plan, but together we can pull it off. Can you chip in
to stop big business profiting off genocide and occupation?

Under cover of its genocidal war in Gaza, Israel has ramped up its attacks
on Palestinians in the West Bank, killing 1,000 people since October 2023
and deploying tanks in the area for the first time in decades.
Villagers describe being “hunted” by Israeli settlers and having their
homes burned. Settlers have even been given semi-automatic weapons by
Israeli armed forces to carry out these state-backed war crimes.
Airbnb is normalising these atrocities. There are over 300 Airbnb
properties on land that was brutally ripped from Palestinians – even after
the world’s highest court stated that Israel’s occupation of Palestinian
lands is illegal.
Airbnb knows what it’s doing is reprehensible because it already committed
back in 2018 to “act responsibly” and remove all listings on illegally
occupied territory – before backtracking just a few months later.
But pressure is building on businesses with blood on their hands. The UN
just released a historic report exposing the economy of genocide and it’s
damningly clear: doing business with Israel’s illegal occupation directly
fuels its system of apartheid and ongoing genocide against Palestinians.
Right now, we have a real chance of making an example of Airbnb. Our
partners are working flat-out on an unprecedented case to hold this travel
behemoth accountable for handling cash linked to proceeds of crime
– otherwise known as money laundering. But building a watertight case is
time-consuming, expensive work and they’re asking for our help to take it
all the way.
Every single action we take together brings us closer to ending the
violence and winning justice for Palestinians. Together, we can be part of
a groundswell to finally stop corporate giants from fueling Israel’s
occupation and genocide. Chip in today to fund this legal case and more
work for Palestine:
