Help get Lubna to safety by sending whatever you can to www.PayPal.me/keithcarbone



LUBNA is a 24 year old chemical engineering student, and she is living a shadow of a life in complete isolation in Baghdad. We can get her out of there but we need to raise a few thousand dollars for transportation, insurance and for her sister in order for her to be granted emergency status in the US.



A handful of very generous people have donated about $4000 over the last two months, however we need to raise another 8500 and time is not really on our side.



So please read the story, watch the video, and email (and send PayPal to) Keith.carbone@Gmail.com if you have questions.



This is not a scam.  There is a life on the line and with no institutional apparatus set up to handle unique situations such as this, the best way to help is directly.



You can help me get her to safety by sending whatever you can to www.PayPal.me/keithcarbone, recording a testimonial of your own and sharing this post.



Lubna is living in a city where she is recognizable by people who want her dead.  She has no power most of the time.  She has no human contact besides one relative who brings food to the empty house where she sits in darkness waiting for the army to do another sweep looking for jihadists so she can hide in claustrophobic conditions while they make another run through the house like they have several times now.  She can come out of this nightmare and we can make it happen. but, since February, her situation has gotten much worse and time is running out.

If You Know Who Lubna Is....

Lubna is living in a city where she is recognizable by people who want her dead.  She has no power most of the time.  She has no human contact besides one relative who brings food to the empty house where she sits in darkness waiting for the army to do another sweep looking for jihadists so she can hide in claustrophobic conditions while they make another run through the house like they have several times now.  She can come out of this nightmare and we can make it happen. but, since February, her situation has gotten much worse and time is running out.

We just need to convince the people who know her to donate or raise funds from their closest friends who would be sympathetic.  People who are not well off should be able to raise $100 in 5 or 10 dollar increments. People who are more comfortable should be able to raise $500 or even $1000. If 20 people who know Lubna do this and give or raise an average of $500 then we will have accomplished our goal.

Read and share her story and this article on the effort.
Watch and share the video too.

Want to record a testimonial for Lubna? Send it and I'll post it individually and make it part of our kickstartet campaign (once I have a few testimonials this campaign will be moved to kickstarter).

To help Lubna please send whatever you can afford to PayPal.me/keithcarbone or use this email Keith.carbone@Gmail.com

Do We Care?

Friends, I hate to say it but I think we are not interested in helping people like Lubna to survive her conditions, which I can tell you are quite unpleasant since very few people have asked.  The mere fact that a very small number of people who can afford it have thrown generous sums of $500 more than once might make it easier to feel like you don't have to throw 10, 20, 50 bucks or 12 dollars you were gonna spend on a treat for yourself.  I'm sure I could take this $20 and spend it on triggering the reward receptors in my brain by sending it to help this person I remember seeing on Facebook and on that Dave Rubin guy's show before she was suddenly in some kind of danger...whatever, I'm going to spend it on some shit on eBay, maybe I'll get that new video game,  or a I could take a trip to the organic grocer for some expensive dissentary roulette... I know, after I read some headlines and get into a heated argument about whether Trump is the worst guy ever or Hillary is a criminally crooked criminal who did all the crookery, I'll reward my lack of dialectic and my righteous pose by taking a leisure day just for me because I earned it....hey look, I've even got an extra $20!

Now that the world is small enough to fit in your pocket and we can all get outraged about the same trivial pivotal event and feel part of the world by sharing a meme we think was probably fact checked by some one, we in the big evil west who have our gross and racist concepts like human rights, equality and free expression get to meet all of these people who have none of these things.  We can be in whatever forum and group we want where we can write and say anything, but these new people seem to be talking about the same things we are only they have to keep their family and neighbours from knowing that they have a secret rendezvous with pluralism every day.  If you think that these people, who are in your groups, wouldn't gladly give generously to get Lubna a little closer to life back above ground far away from the literal Anne Frank life she has now, then you're cracked.

I'd love to help the whole of humanity be free of the abject torment of living in a society organized in advance around the  violent reaction to the person who thinks differently, the person who is made so that they cannot love who they are told to love, the boy who doesn't want to pray five times every day, the girl who would rather keep her dirty clitoris and see for herself, the mother who doesn't want to choose between raising her children with a violent father or poverty, or the student who thinks her hair is just fine uncovered and her walk to the library doesn't require a male relative to walk with her and ward off the devout and spiritual men with their pious verbal assault, scare away the children hurling projectiles at her head, or be beaten in her stead by the violent Shia twelver cult members and Iranian regime subsidiary militia thugs who demand she change her offensive appearance.

A young female student took a daily trek through this thorn bush of malignant creeps manacled to shame and rage, and she fought them while they scold her in the street or smack her face on the bus or maybe they follow her to an ally where they can do more to convince her to fit in.  She fought there and then she went on the internet and with almost no experience interacting with like minded people, she fought there too.  She appeared on a YouTube show to be interviewed about her story which was making the rounds in a small community of thinking people and she said things that angered the thorn bush.  The thorn bush is not coming for her, it's the culture she lived and now hides in.

We can easily forget and we can see that someone is helping her or trying and that makes it easier to rationalize doing fuck all about it.  Ask one of the people you know who are pretending to be religious in a theocratic society whether they are anxious about whether vocal allies, and openly atheist westerners are willing to help this girl.  There are unknown millions of these victims and victims in waiting who hide behind lies while they look for a way to escape living in a mental prison, avoid incest and arranged marriage, or have a life where a family or friendship is possible without fear of being discovered.

The Pakistani media has declared atheists and ex Muslims to be enemy of the state.  Pakistanis are enjoined to attack them or point them out.  Lubna is hiding in the gulf, and there are others in Pakistan and Iran and the Arabian Peninsula, North Africa, and Europe.  Sign in to PayPal and help us get this woman out of this place.  Or I think that you can still get in on that eBay auction before it closes and someone else snags that trekkie porn video game you have wanted so bad since you saw it this morning.  That's a good thing you can do I suppose.

If you miss the auction and think of it, you can read the next post here again, or just send money to the below link.
