Seriously if you've never seen Wag the Dog, it's absolutely vital in this geopolitical moment.

You can find it on daily motion (ahem)
@quinn I've been thinking about this very fact for a long while now.
@rysiek I'm worried that the younglings have never seen it and want to correct the error immediately

The pizza orders were off the charts last night around the Pentagon so the truly paranoid could easily believe this was a planned loss of an F-15.

I am not that paranoid but it is funny to see.

@quinn C'mon Willie, your country needs you now.
@quinn @jamil It seemed over-the-top yet completely plausible on release. Today it seems quaint and understated.
@quinn I queued Wag the Dog up a few months ago like I did Contagion in 2020. I'm not sure I can actually watch it.
