Seemingly apropos of nothing, on September 19 the Amsterdam-based online travel giant Booking.com announced that it intends to place warning labels on lodgings owned by Jews in Judea and Samaria (i.e., the West Bank). According to the company’s press release, a statement will be placed next to listings in Israeli communities in those areas saying, “A visit to this area may be…
