Investigated Israeli youths' reactions to the assassination of their Prime Minister, analyzing graffiti on the walls of Tel Aviv's city hall immediately and 10 months after the event. Overall, graffiti represented spontaneous, authentic feelings of loss and "spontaneous memorialization." Many youth were addressing the social, political, and cultural aspects of the event. Graffiti differed markedly between the two dates. (SM)
