My Big Fat Greek Wedding Annulment

Greek voters rejected an EU deal to resolve Greece's debt problem:

Greeks voted overwhelmingly on Sunday to reject terms of a bailout, risking financial ruin in a show of defiance that could splinter Europe.

With nearly half of the votes counted, official figures showed 61 percent of Greeks rejecting the bailout offer. An official interior ministry projection confirmed the figure as close to the expected final tally.

Now we'll see if the Greek divorce from the European Union spreads to NATO or even reality itself.

UPDATE: More. Including Russian and Chinese motivations to help Greece.
