American Historical Association condemns BushCo policies

Among the complained violations:
exclusion of foreign scholars, the reclassification of previously unclassified documents, the suspension of habeas corpus in certain cases, and the use of unacceptable interrogation techniques at Guantanamo, Abu-Ghraib, and elsewhere.

A vote of just under 15 percent of AHA membership supported the resolution by a 3-1 margin.

No word if neoconservative historian Victor Davis Hanson, of the “clash of cultures unto Armageddon” take on modern Islam, is an AHA member.
