RE/MAX office vandalized in solidarity with Palestine

The RE/MAX office on the Vijzelstraat in Amsterdam had its locks glued and windows painted with the message: “RE/MAX SELLS STOLEN LAND” and “FREE PALESTINE.”

The multinational real estate company has an office in the colonial Israeli settlement of Ma’ale Adumim and sells/rents properties in many of the major Israeli settlements in the West Bank as well as in occupied East Jerusalem. This is land that has been violently stolen from Palestinians and colonized by Israeli settlers.

The Netherlands has a long history both as a brutal colonial state and as a safe haven for the companies that profit from colonialism. But just because a company’s office is located within the heavily policed and gentrified center of Amsterdam does not make it invulnerable to attack.

RE/MAX profits off of the displacement and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.

Smash settler colonialism!
Free Palestine!
