N2  - Previous studies have pointed out the different ways in which the mass media tend to denude terrorism of any ideological significance and relegate it to the periphery of society. However, an analysis of the press coverage of the Jewish underground found exactly the opposite kind of response. Emphasis was placed on the ideological motivation of those concerned and the different ways in which their actions were the inevitable conclusion of political currents at the center of Israeli society. An attempt was thereby made to delegitimize not only the terrorists themselves but also the ideology that allegedly nurtured them.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
