I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the vast majority of people do not consider it unethical for a country to enforce its laws or have a military. As for restricting use by Israelis, I'll just point out that the license it

So climate change deniers are engaging in gaslighting, but you don't think we should do anything to stop them... because maybe one of them stumbles on a scientific breakthrough?

It doesn't seem that hard to differentiate "Marriott is washing towels less often to save money, not because they care about saving water" from someone claiming that climate change isn't happening...
