Asking the firing squad to reload when the first volley missed

What else might one use as a metaphor for this?:

Greenlandic politician Palle Christiansen - "Greenland already has close relations to the EU through the OLT system, but these should be even closer. A self-ruling Greenland or an independent Greenland in the future will not survive in political isolation but through political co-operation. That could very well be through the EU....I don't see any problems with becoming a member of the EU. The advantages Greenland has economically, in educational matters, on health issues and so forth could be strengthened with membership in EU".

Any problems? Blimey. Even the EU's Amen Corner would struggle to describe it as a perfect union.

Short political memories in Greenland then?

Having said that, once Greenland is in, it's next stop Canada and I think the Canucks would be an excellent ally to have at the table.
