Olive groves burned, cars torched, children shot dead — Israel’s armed forces and violent settlers are mercilessly attacking #Palestinian communities daily and forcing them from their homes.

Sickeningly, travel giant Booking.com is listing holiday destinations on this stolen land and taking a cut from every stay. It’s clear: Booking.com is enabling a war crime

Kindly stop using this company xxx

The (im)morality of it aside, when I see things like this, I know that the company has automated so much of their work that there are no humans involved. I would not use them on that basis alone. If anything goes wrong, there’s no one to contact to get it fixed. Why would I use a product that has no way to resolve the statistically inevitable failures? They have externalized *all* risk to their “customers”.

The 1917 Balfour Declaration was a 67-word letter from British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour to Lord Rothschild, pledging British support for a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine. Issued on 2 November 1917, it aimed to secure Zionist support during WWI, but created LASTING CONFLICT by disregarding the native Arab majority and conflicting with other British wartime promises

That's the history of it.
