				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>The tensions are running high between the UK and the EU. If they can&#8217;t work out a deal before the deadline on 29 March 2019 it could have huge implications for the UK. When the UK joined the EU the British blockade was abolished for the first time since WW I but now it could be reinstated after the Brexit, blocking of the UK from the EU.</p>
<p>This would mean:</p>
<p>No cheese form France,</p>
<p>No beer from Belgium,</p>
<p>No football-players from Spain,</p>
<p>No wine from Italy,</p>
<p>and basically no trade between the UK and the EU countries.</p>
<p>Ships have already been seen leaving different harbors in the EU to block of the Strait of Dover if it would prove to be necessary. But something that is even worse..</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/giphy2.gif" alt="" width="635" height="286" /></p>
<p>..is that this story is entirely made up!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Because <strong>this article is Fake!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>For one, the British blockade was aimed at Germany to block them off during the First World War and not the other way around <img src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" class="wp-smiley" /></p>

<p>We wrote this to show you how easy it is to create false headlines, and how dangerous can be. Websites that post click-baity headlines often fill their pages with ads, and are making a shitload of money. These headlines often include outrageous claims which are not supported by evidence. <strong>By clicking on unfounded sensational news you contribute to the spreading of fake news.</strong> The only thing we can do is undermining their businessmodel!</p>
<p><strong>So next time you see a headline like ours? Think twice about clicking on the link!</strong></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>With the amount of harmful plastic litter in oceans and seas growing ever greater, the European Commission is proposing new EU-wide rules to target the <strong>10 single-use plastic products</strong> most often found on Europe’s beaches and seas.</p>
<p>Together these constitute 70% of all marine litter items. The new rules are proportionate and tailored to get the best results. This means different measures will be applied to different products. Where alternatives are readily available and affordable, single-use plastic products will be banned from the market. For products without straight-forward alternatives, the focus is on limiting their use through a national reduction in consumption; design and labelling requirements and waste management/clean-up obligations for producers. Together, the new rules will put Europe ahead of the curve on an issue with global implications.</p>
<p>The other 30% of marine litter is partly made up by disposable cotton products like t-shirts, socks and underwear. <strong>Does this mean that de EU is going to ban cotton next and that we&#8217;ll have to walk in clothing made from biodegradable wool?</strong></p>

<p><strong>Of course not!</strong></p>

<p>We made up this article to show you how easy it is to lure you to a website. Websites often post headlines with a question mark. And the answer is almost every time no!

<p><strong>What? Did you really think a website like ours would bring BREAKING news?</strong></p>
<p>Websites that post click-baity headlines often fill their pages with ads, and are making crazy amounts of money. <strong>By clicking on unfounded sensational news you contribute to the spread of fake news.</strong></p>
<p>Language can also be an indicator of fake news. In our headline, for example, we used the word <a href="https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/collision">collision</a>. But you probably thought we ment <a href="https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/collusion">collusion</a>. Websites sometimes use these tricks to avoid breaking the law or Facebook policy.</p>
<p>So next time you see breaking news: <strong>check the source and the language first!</strong></p>
<p>Share our Facebook post to fool your friends  and teach them a lesson too!!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>After the latest immigration spats in Europe, the rebuilding of the Iron Curtain could become a dark reality.</p>
<p>In 2015, Hungary built a border barrier on its border with Serbia and Croatia. The fence was constructed during the European migrant crisis, with the aim to ensure border security by preventing immigrants from entering illegally, and enabling the option to enter through official checkpoints and claim asylum in Hungary in accordance with international and European law. &#8211; <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_border_barrier">Source</a></p>
<p>Take a look at the maps below!! The Hungarian Border Wall is at the same place as the Iron Curtain used to be!!</p>
<p>Hungarian Border Wall (red):</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/310px-HU-Southern_Border_Barrier.svg_1.png" alt="" width="310" height="231" /></p>
<p>Iron Curtain (white):</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/cold_war_mp1.jpg" alt="" width="604" height="540" /></p>
<p>This is not a coincidence!</p>
<p>The Iron Curtain was the name for the boundary dividing Europe into two separate areas from the end of World War II in 1945 until the end of the Cold War in 1991. The term symbolizes the efforts by the Soviet Union to block itself and its satellite states from open contact with the West and its allied states. On the east side of the Iron Curtain were the countries that were connected to or influenced by the Soviet Union, while on the west side were the countries that were allied to the United States or nominally neutral. Separate international economic and military alliances were developed on each side of the Iron Curtain. &#8211; <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Curtain">Source</a></p>
<p><strong>Does this mean that the Iron Curtain will be rebuild to divide Europe into two areas again?!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/giphy3.gif" alt="" width="450" height="450" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Of course not! </strong></p>
<p><strong>It is just a historical coincidence..</strong></p>
<p>Website often use absurd questions to lure you to their websites. They&#8217;ll use conspiratorial language and vague historical claims to support their stories.. And they’ll fill up their websites with ads and make a bunch of money.</p>
<p>This is called click-bait: ‘a link which entices you to click on it. The “bait” comes in many shapes and sizes, but it is usually intentionally misleading and/or crassly provocative. Clicking will inevitably cause disappointment.’ – <a href="https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=clickbait" target="_blank">Urban Dictionary</a></p>
<p>Sorry to have disappointed you.. but hopefully next time you’ll think twice before clicking on a link that raises more questions than answers!</p>

<p>With the amount of harmful plastic litter in oceans and seas growing ever greater, the European Commission is proposing new EU-wide rules to target the <strong>10 single-use plastic products</strong> most often found on Europe&#8217;s beaches and seas.</p>
<p>Together these constitute 70% of all marine litter items. The new rules are proportionate and tailored to get the best results. This means different measures will be applied to different products. Where alternatives are readily available and affordable, single-use plastic products will be banned from the market. For products without straight-forward alternatives, the focus is on limiting their use through a national reduction in consumption; design and labelling requirements and waste management/clean-up obligations for producers. Together, the new rules will put Europe ahead of the curve on an issue with global implications.</p>
<p>Because plastic surgeons, by definition, <strong>insert single-use plastics into their patients</strong> the EU regulation could mean that plastic surgery will be banned in the EU. Does this mean a plastic surgery travel ban is in the making?!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Experts claim that Bernie Sanders has to pay royalties to the Vietnamese government for using the term ‘socialist’.</p>
<p>Senator Bernie Sanders never lied about his political affiliation. &#8220;I am a socialist and everyone knows that,&#8221; Sanders said, during the election in 1990. &#8220;They also understand that my kind of democratic socialism has nothing to do with authoritarian communism.&#8221; But now this claim could come back and haunt him.</p>
<p>Vietnam, is the easternmost country on the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. With an estimated 94.6 million inhabitants as of 2016, it is the world&#8217;s 14th-most-populous country, and the ninth-most-populous Asian country. Vietnam is bordered by China to the north, Laos to the northwest, Cambodia to the southwest, Thailand across the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest, and the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia across the South China Sea to the east and southeast. Its capital city has been Hanoi since the reunification of North and South Vietnam in 1976, with Ho Chi Minh City as the most populous city.</p>
<p>Many people refer to the country as Vietnam, but officially its copyright protected name is: Socialist Republic of Vietnam. And now they might be preparing a law suit against Bernie Sanders.</p>
<p><strong>They’ll see him in court!</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/51-qcp0ao4L._SX351_BO1204203200_.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-426" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/51-qcp0ao4L._SX351_BO1204203200_.jpg" alt="51-qcp0ao4l-_sx351_bo1204203200_" width="353" height="499" /></a></p>
<p>The court date has been set for never.. Because, this article is a lot of bogus. We wrote this article to show you how easy it is to make people believe in wild stories.. You probably clicked on this link because to thought it was funny, it made you angry, sparked your interest, or is aligned with your political view.</p>
<p><strong>We are sorry to break it to you, but articles that are too crazy to believe, are probably not true! Especially when politicians are involved!</strong></p>
<p>Keep that in mind next time you see a headline like ours <img class="wp-smiley" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" /></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div class="photo">The Pacific Northwest tree octopus (<em>Octopus paxarbolis</em>) can be found in the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperate_rainforest">temperate rainforests</a> of the Olympic Peninsula on the west coast of North America.</div>
<div class="photo"></div>
<p>Although the tree octopus is not officially listed on the Endangered Species List, we feel that it should be added since its numbers are at a critically low level for its breeding needs. The reasons for this dire situation include: decimation of habitat by logging and suburban encroachment; building of roads that cut off access to the water which it needs for spawning; predation by foreign species such as house cats; and booming populations of its natural predators, including the bald eagle and <a href="https://zapatopi.net/bsa/octopus.html">sasquatch</a>. What few that make it to the Canal are further hampered in their reproduction by the growing problem of pollution from farming and residential run-off. Unless immediate action is taken to protect this species and its habitat, the Pacific Northwest tree octopus will be but a memory.</p>
<p>Check out the <a href="https://zapatopi.net/treeoctopus/">very informative website</a> for more information!</p>
<p>Here are a few things that <b>you</b> can do to help save the Pacific Northwest tree octopus:</p>
<ul>
<li>Write your representatives to let them know that you are concerned and that you feel the tree octopus should be included on the Endangered Species List and given special protection.</li>
<li>Write to celebrities asking them to speak out on behalf of the tree octopus during press junkets and award shows.</li>
<li>Help build awareness of the tree octopus by telling your friends, co-workers, or even random people on the streets.</li>
<li>Place a tentacle ribbon on your website or social media.</li>
<li>Participate in tree octopus awareness marches. You can demonstrate their plight during the march by having your friends dress up as tree octopuses while you attack them in a lumberjack costume.</li>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Days before the start of one of the world&#8217;s biggest sporting events a new conspiracy theory came to light. This time supported by some real evidence!</p>
<p><strong>Take a close look!</strong> These stadiums weren&#8217;t even here a few years ago!</p>
<p>When we use geolocation and Google Earth we see the evidence everywhere!</p>
<p>The Kaliningrad Stadium is easy to find on <a href="https://www.google.nl/maps/place/Kaliningrad+Stadium/@54.6979473,20.5326633,443m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x46e31668f0417d05:0xba56dc7ac1d5fd13!8m2!3d54.6979473!4d20.534852">Google maps</a>.</p>
<p>But when we take a closer look at the location we see that there used to be a forrest a couple years ago.. Surely the Russians must have something to do with it!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-397" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Rus2.png" alt="rus2" width="850" height="450" /></p>
<p>The same goes for the <a href="https://www.google.nl/maps/place/Nizhny+Novgorod+Stadium/@56.3375157,43.9611755,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x4151d42a52a5a21f:0x2a8fc5c315b61b19!8m2!3d56.3375157!4d43.9633642">Nizhny Novgorod Stadium</a>.</p>
<p>When we look closely we will learn that..</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-398" src="http://www.forbiddenfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Russia.png" alt="russia" width="850" height="450" /></p>
<p><strong>..not every image from Google Earth with red arrows on it is evidence!!</strong></p>
<p>Take a close look and you&#8217;ll see that the &#8216;before&#8217; and &#8216;after&#8217; pictures don&#8217;t even match.</p>
<p><strong>So think about it, why did you click on the link?</strong></p>
<p>The Russians are organizing this event.. So the headline of this article might have sounded conspiratorial to you, but it is in the most boring sense absolutely true.</p>
<p>We created this article to show you how easy it is to create false conspiracy theories, supported by doctored images, and how easy it is to get people to click on links directed to dodgy websites.</p>
<p><strong>Next time you see an article like ours? Think twice before reacting to it!</strong></p>
