Don't really understand what they are looking for. My Israeli friends tell me that it's a "Random" search for anything BUT it only ever happens to me on flights from Indonesia. So how random is that? Be warned!
OP has the whole night to connect. How much time did you have between your flights?
I've seen such searches of inbound pax at AMS for flights in from the middle east. It's got to do with drugs more than anything else.
