This article presents Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) of Tehrik- e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). Drawing upon the post structuralist
method of deconstruction, this article identifies key persuasive
strategies and thematic formations that underlie the rhetoric of
Taliban. It seeks to examine how TTP contextualizes the political
environment and securitizes Islamic values using identity- mediated discourse of danger to the Islam through speech acts
that mediate war against the ‘ideological other’—Pakistan. In
addition, it attempts to expose the discursive structures upon TTP
challenges counter terrorism campaign of Pakistan in an extreme
manner by analyzing the articulation, interpellation, and
operationalization of militant discourse—sustained through the
production, distribution, and consumption of the text.
Furthermore, it also discusses how master narrative of Taliban
problematizes the existing context and promise to deliver
revisionist solutions. Finally, article concludes that, TTP’s so- called ‘defensive jihad’ narrative is a war legitimizing discourse—
constructed on religious discursivity and sustained through
language.
