Lyrics to Plausible Deniability
The self serving U.N. who manufacture war Saw no legal way to stop the killings committed in East Timor "We don't want to create a situation in which the responsibility that is the government of Indonesia's is shifted to the international community." But when there was a "Crisis in Kosovo" we heard a different speech The human rights defended were worth the jurisdiction breached And when they declared that Yugoslavia must be stopped Operation Allied Force made sure the bombs were dropped The slaughter of the East Timorese should have been prevented Just like the scorched earth policy that was also implemented In the U.N.'s moral conscience had any real sincerity But instead they hide behind a mask of plausible deniability So now the "peacekeepers" of the western world seem humbled by regret Unable to stretch the U.N. budget to help empower UNAMET Leaving Indonesia hopelessly caught between two warring factions And their economy could be destabilized by outside interaction The militias are solely responsible for murdering the East Timorese That's what the U.N. and the American media would lead you to believe But the Indonesian government is not as innocent as it seems They're the U.S. sponsored terrorists of a puppet rogue regime The militias are just a front for the Indonesian military Committing genocidal actions while projecting legitimacy Suppressing the "special autonomy" the referendum ballot guaranteed Preventing the independence that the election so decreed The U.S. were long time supporters of Shurarto's authoritarian rule Whose atrocities were overlooked for being a beneficial tool Buying U.S. political support under a false pretense So when the political tide turned and special interests were at stake The U.S. helped dismantle that dictatorship and build Indonesia a new state Secretly trained army militia to keep their prosperity intact Insuring that in spite of their oppression the U.N. would never act So the western leaders cry crocodile tears and offer empty threats In the face of another genocide they claim they won't forget Their hypocrisy is blatantly obvious with the excuses that they gave These protectors of world democracy bury more people than they save
