Palestinian workers wait in line for security checks before being allowed by the Israeli army to pass through the Erez crossing from the northern Gaza Strip into Israel early Sunday Feb. 26, 2006. The crossing is the only outlet of Palestinian workers into Israel and is threatened with closure. If Hamas sticks to its nonrecognition of Israel after it takes office in the coming weeks, 'we will have to close the gates and no one can pass,' said Shlomo Dror, an Israeli military spokesman on Palestinian affairs.
