U.S. Illegal Experiments Went Far Beyond Guatemala

GUATEMALA - The illegal experiments conducted on human beings by a U.S. medical team in the 1940s went far beyond Guatemala, according to local news reports. The team headed by Dr. John Cutler did the same thing in the United States, India, and African nations, said Leon Arango, member of the commission in charge of investigating the experiments on Guatemalans, quoted in the Diario de Centro America newspaper on Monday.

Cutler headed a team that from 1946 to 1948 intentionally infected 610 Guatemalans with venereal diseases, including prostitutes, prisoners, soldiers, and mentally disabled people, according to a report published by a U.S. investigator.

That disclosure triggered a wave of indignation in that country. President Alvaro Colom called the incident a crime against humanity, and ordered the creation of a commission to make the corresponding investigations.

Arango said he had information that showed the experiments were also conducted on U.S. prison inmates and citizens from a community in Alabama, as well in African countries and in India.

1. This strange disregard for human life may have occurred here, not to long ago.

I think it was when Jeb Bush was governor. I'm not attributing this to him, just trying to lock down the timeframe, but, I remember an article where they were going to use small children in foster care as test subjects, I believe for vaccinations. Their foster parents were going to sign off on their rights. It was one of the subjects where I went off, like my hair was on fire.

That may have also have occurred about the time that Jeb Bush was thinking of injecting some kind of pollutants in the ground, believing that if they went deep enough, it would miss the aquifer.

Anyone remember any of these two insane ideas?
