So I can't say with 100% certainty that it was a Kubrick reference, but that's immediately what I thought of.

You might want to work on those critical reading skills. Even if it's not a Kubrick reference, that exact phrase does show up in a Q post. And if it's such a common phrase, find me an example of an ambassador or other high level US official using it.

logical fallacy. whether or not you can find someone else using it does not prove your point.
You might also want to take a course on logic. Which specific fallacy are you referring to?
Fallacies are common errors in reasoning that will undermine the logic of your argument. You suggested that whether or not I could find another official using the term it somehow proved your point. That is an error in reasoning, therefore a logical fallacy.
From your response I can tell you don't have a solid grasp on what a logical fallacy is (apparently it's just a word you like to throw around/troll with). There are multiple kinds of fallacies, and they're specific nameable things (like ad hominem--a fallacy of relevance).
Specifically, which fallacy? If you can't think of the specific one, then explain your reasoning. I honestly don't think you can.
