British Airbnb host rejects Israeli for ‘occupying someone else’s land’

“On that basis, I just cannot even consider hosting you, even if you pay me millions.”

Mr Kelmer posted a complaint to Airbnb’s Facebook page, saying that he was “served healthy dose of Grade A, European bigotry and discrimination at its finest, poorly masked as so-called, socially-conscious political protest of the worst, most prejudiced kind, that is strictly reserved to Israelis.”

In a statement to the JC Airbnb said: “Discrimination has no place on Airbnb and we have removed this host from our community. We are proud to have one of the most open, trusted, diverse and transparent communities in the world and investigate any claims we receive."

Airbnb has been in the news recently for the controversy surrounding its listings in the West Bank.
