Thousands expected in DC for anti-war protest

None

Organizers say thousands of people are headed to the U.S. capital to protest on the seventh anniversary of the invasion of Iraq.

 

A coalition of anti-war groups, led by military veterans as well as activists Ralph Nader and Cindy Sheehan, are scheduled to hold a rally at noon (1600 GMT) Saturday in Lafayette Park near the White House and march through downtown. Stops on the route include military contractor Halliburton, the Mortgage Bankers Association and The Washington Post offices. (AP)
