Dislike the question. At the time it was asked, it was 1 crazed Jewish stabber who was caught rather than killed and the *majority* of Arab stabbers. Meaning not all Arab stabbers were killed. Why not? And it is impossible to have a "majority" of a single person, so they were extrapolating from a single anecdote.
I would presume that the answer lies in the individual situations. An Arab stabber is trying to be a terrorist, and would stab and attempt to murder any security personnel who approached, because they are trying to murder everyone. How did the two additional Jewish people arrested rather than shot conduct themselves when the police arrived. Were they in the middle of stabbing people? Did they attempt to kill the policeman?
Meanwhile, the average Israeli citizen is not going to think on his feet, and may well answer in a way that will aid in the propaganda that this clip is trying to promote -- that this is racist killing of the poor Arab stabbers.
I can't watch the video at the moment, but the headlining question is a good one.
