Rappaport describes so-called epidemics as intelligence agency operations that require a compelling cover story to divert public attention. He argues that international cases in Dallas, New York, and Spain are used to cement the fear factor and justify police-state measures.

He argues that major events are framed with specific symbolic charges to keep people focused on bogus cover stories for decades, effectively wiping the truth from collective memory.
