The attacker did not show up but the blue police did. On the road heading down from the checkpoint they open a checkpoint, and they stopped Palestinian vehicles to check their papers and performed a physical inspection on the drivers. When we ask with puzzlement about this inspection they explained that it was a routine activity. We had never witnessed such a routine.
