Amish tracing their roots back to Germanic heritage (in fact most still speak a dialect thereof), likely feel a connection to things that happened back in Germany moreso than other groups. Thus the apology for silence makes some semblance of sense.

So if Brits commited atrocities against the Boer, Americans should feel guilty?

I don't know the wierd part is why did they choose to apologize for this somewhat to them connected injustice rather than say some of the other examples in the OP?
