WASHINGTON - Organizers are planning what they say will be the largest anti-war demonstration in the nation's capital since the Iraq war began in March 2003.

The ANSWER Coalition and United for Peace and Justice detailed their plans Thursday for the Sept. 24 protest. They plan to bus in people from across the country for a march past the White House. Other major protests are planned that day in San Francisco and Los Angeles.

Cindy Sheehan, whose 24-year-old son, Army Spc. Casey Sheehan, was killed last year in Iraq, is on a 25-state bus tour that will end at the protest in Washington. The anti-war groups will coordinate with planned protests against the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, which are holding their annual meetings the same weekend.

Organizers believe the presence of Sheehan ? whose one-woman protest outside President Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, has energized the anti-war movement ? and growing public sentiment against the war will produce a turnout of 100,000 or more.

Brian Becker, national coordinator for ANSWER, said the protest will "mark a turning point for the anti-war movement" and put pressure on the administration to withdraw U.S. troops.
