International ANSWER coalition:

Mass 'unity rally' plans

International ANSWER reported on March 25 that the principal anti-war coalitions planning demonstrations and rallies on April 20 in Washington, D.C., have agreed to a concluding unity rally that will be organized and co-chaired by those coalitions. Marches organized by the different coalitions will converge on Pennsylvania Avenue east of the White House and move together to the unity rally site. The coalitions are forming a joint committee to organize and plan the unity rally.

The ANSWER coalition says it "considers this united front effort to be an essential component of building a movement that can stop George Bush's 'declaration of war' that is targeting the people of Iraq, Colombia, Palestine, Vieques, the Philippines, Yemen, Somalia, Korea, Iran and elsewhere." The domestic component of this war drive, says ANSWER, is "an attack on civil rights and civil liberties at home."

Further details of the marches and unity rally will be announced later.
