In 2014 he called on the European Union to recognise the State of Palestine. In 2019 he co-penned a letter to The Guardian acknowledging that The UN Independent Commission of Inquiry on the 2018 Gaza protests should be supported in full. In 2022, he wrote an op-ed in an Irish newspaper agreeing with the then recent Amnesty International report characterizing Israel as an apartheid regime. His grandmother, Sarah Jannah, owned a home in Sheikh Jarrah before 1948. Ben-Yair has been very strongly against the evictions of Palestinians from the former family home and wishes to regain ownership and allow the Palestinians to live in the building for a nominal rent.
