Dermer responded: “Andrea, if someone was coming at you with a knife, would you want the police officer to take out a knife and to try to stop him or would you want that police officer to shoot that person before he would attack you?” Mitchell proclaimed: “Not shoot to kill.”

She then declared that Israel was “...losing the war on social media because these videos [of the police shootings] – sometimes taken out of context, I'll grant you – are going viral throughout the world.” Mitchell warned: “You are potentially inciting more violence because of these incidents and the way they are being perceived.”
