This story could be all "look, how cute, they love each other!". It could be heart melting, to learn that myspace.com is not only for teens, freaks and child molesters. It could transmit that through the Internet -- source of so many bad stories, freaking out people every day -- something positive and great has happened. Two people jumped over borders. Two people found love, crossing barriers of culture and religion. Two people overcame fundamental prejudices of their culture.

But no. Our time doesn't allow this kind of positive view. We are trained for twists and turns, making it shocking news, manifesting fundamental fears, the roots of all hatred. Is this manipulative journalism? Not really, since I doubt the journalist who wrote this article intended to manipulate. But being american, he just couldn't help writing it from an american culture point of view. That's understandable, but not forgivable.
