Colossal Flaws in Ukrainian Propaganda Pitch

An Observer in a Black Sea Resort Town

Here is an Ukranian propaganda film showing well-fed soldiers, wearing clean uniforms, who haven’t seen fighting, in a pristine location, with each soldier putting their forefinger to their mouth indicating “keep silent”, somewhat reminiscent of a British WW2 propaganda poster that reads, “Careless talk costs lives”. The quietness of the location in the film is emphasised by the sounds of birds and gunfire in the distance.

The text at the end may be translated as,
Plan like silence
There will be no announcement that it has started 
I guess the message of the film is directed at President Zelensky and Jake Sullivan who have been doing nothing else but announcing the great Ukranian counteroffensive is about to begin.
But what we have seen in the past 4 days of this Great Ukranian counteroffensive (led by the US) is disaster as Russia has destroyed 54 tanks and a large number of combat vehicles, killed over 4,000 Ukranians, destroyed 84 Ukranian artillery units as well as mechanized brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The Russians also shot down several helicopters, two Su-25 aircraft, and two Su-27 fighter aircraft of the Ukranian Airforce, intercepted a British Storm Shadow cruise missile and HARM anti-radar missile, while the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out a group strike with long-range high precision air-launched weapons on one of the decision making centres of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, scoring a direct hit.
Russia also found time,  according to Western sources,  to blow up their own dam causing serious ecological damage and also threatens a Russian nuclear power station and deprives Crimea of water. After a long careful meticulous investigation of 30 minutes, the German media announces Russia blew up their own dam, even though after one year of investigations, the West can’t determine who blew up the Nordstream pipelines.
Apparently the Russians are fighting two wars – one against Ukraine,  and one against Russia.  According to Western intelligence sources, the Russians attacked the Crimea Bridge, blew up Nordstream 2, attacked their own nuclear power plant, attacked the Kremlin with drones in an attempt to kill Putin, and blew up their own dam.
Meanwhile, the Russian navy has just taken part in the Komodo-2023 international exercise off the coast of Indonesia,  not far from Australia.
The Ukranian Armed Forces also have a marvellous plan to seize control of Crimea by Sunday.
FOOTNOTE:
About an hour after this Germany magazine published the cover with the title from “Russia explode huge dam in  Ukraine”, they changed it to “Huge dam exploded in Ukraine”
