An Israeli soldier stands guard as elderly Palestinians sit in the shade waiting to cross the Hawara checkpoint near the West Bank town of Nablus Wednesday July 14, 2004. The Israeli military closed the checkpoint for several hours Wednesday due to warnings of attacks coming into Israel, and opened it later for everyone except men under 35 years old.
