Through historical and conflict analysis, this study explores the imagery of conflict in multiple Northern Ireland mural paintings. Specifically, the study focuses on how murals shape and construct terrorist/freedom fighter ideology and identity. The findings show that murals in Northern Ireland create their own invented versions of history in order to legitimatize each conflict group's political ideologies. Additionally, there is a profusion of murals reflecting conflict theories such as the diabolical enemy image, sanctification/demonization, militarism, sacrifice, communal fear, ethnic victimization, ego of victimization, and dehumanization. It is suggested that it is time for new murals to be created; a time when the children of Northern Ireland will be free from murals of hatred, bigotry, and the corrupted clichés of tribalism.
