Airbnb recently decided to cut ties and religious acceptance and display what can be inferred as an act of anti-semitism. Airbnb decided it was best to remove listings in the West Bank that are Jewish-owned, which inevitably created controversy.

The following tweets display the opposing view and believe this is a pure and unacceptable act of anti-Semitism. Many of these tweets disagreeing with Airbnb express their decision as hosts to remove their property listings from Airbnb as a way to boycott. Other users advocate using other home-sharing sites instead of Airbnb. Many believe that because Airbnb is boycotting a targeted group of people, Airbnb users should boycott back…
#AIRBNB NO MORE! Some of best technology comes from #SanFrancisco #SiliconValley area, Airbnb HQ, but if Airbnb is excluding units in #Israel and collaborating with #BDS, it’s time to totally boycott it. This is a #racist anti-Israel policy. Go with #VRBO, #HomeAway, NOT Airbnb!

My relatives & I decided to remove all of our 43 listings in the US, Euroupe and Israel due to #Airbnb anti-semetic declaration. We are open to suggestions of other platforms to use instear until they change their decision.

In singling out only #Jewish West Bank homes for boycott, #Airbnb’s disgraceful decision not only promotes anti-#Israel charges but will work to further strengthen #Palestinian intransigence & the larger war to delegitimize the #Jewish state. I for one, will never use them again pic.twitter.com/9rzE1g6aKB

@Airbnb what about Western Sahara, Tibet, and Cyprus. Or are you just boycotting the settlements in the West bank. We call this hypocritical. #Airbnb #IsraelUnderFire #israel #boycottairbnb
