"My point is not that these are the most devastating criticisms of suicide bombings. There are, to my mind and many others, non-consequentialist reasons to be brought into play. Here's one: Don't target civilians. It is, rather, that on his own terms, accepting all the contortions of his position, Honderich is under an obligation to deliver something to suggest that these Palestinian views - which chime directly with his consequentialism, but disagree vehemently with its upshot - are mistaken. These Palestinian judgements might be right or wrong: but against them Honderich only has his unexplained conviction and his authority, which are, strictly speaking, worthless. So the contrast seems a little unequal."
