Ann Borges: We will be on the wrong side of history is we let Ukraine fall

To the editor:

I have been following the evil invasion of Ukraine by Russia. The Russian people are reportedly coerced into living in an alternate reality by a propaganda machine that silences dissent and is so successful that well-publicized mayhem and murder of civilians are visible to the entire world with the exception of Russia. Video evidence of missile attacks on refugees fleeing for their lives, destruction of entire cities, rape of women and children, accounts of the invaders employing mobile crematoriums to destroy evidence and use of poison gas are disbelieved by the Russians owing to Putin's lies and deceit.
