Abstract

This study uses Teun A. van Dijk's "Us versus Them" model to examine how the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is portrayed in editorials published in national and international newspapers through the lens of critical discourse analysis. The public's perception of this conflict, which is rooted in historical, political, and cultural tensions, has been greatly shaped by media narratives. The study aims to highlight the ways in which language shapes social identities and power dynamics in any representation mediated by the media. It draws from a comprehensive analysis of editorial content on the topic published in two major international newspapers
