Abstract:

The topic of Terrorism has gained interest among researchers since the terrorist attacks of 9/11. The media, politicians, and scholars spoke volumes about terrorism, wherein a significant amount of debate is directed toward Muslims and Islam. This study investigates the common transitivity processes employed by Trump to depict terrorists and terrorism in his popular announcement of the killing of Baghdadi. By employing Halliday’s six process types of verbs, this analysis also reveals how the terrorists are represented in the announcements. The study finds that terrorists are represented as powerless, though they have been attributed negative traits. They can no longer do harm; when confronted, they whimper, cry, and scream.

Keywords:

Terrorism, Political discourse, Transitivity selections, Halliday
