Apology to Guatemala and then some... why am I not surprised?

Yes, an apology to Guatemala for syphilis experiments conducted by the U.S. on Guatemalan prisoners, soldiers and hospital patients during the 1940's. Guatemalan authorities... " a crime against humanity" and may take the case to an international court. This leads me right into the involuntary female sterilization in Puerto Rico just after WWI. Will there ever be an apology, too little/too late, and maybe that should be taken to an international court as well. I'll leave it to those with knowledge in that field. This does not surprise me one bit.
