Hey Tinmore, how could a place like Israel that doesn't exist have internationally recognized borders?

Okay, I did some digging into this photo. Extremely difficult to do since it has become a stock photo for code "(Jewish) Israelis are evil".
However...
The photo, best as I can determine, was taken by Jaafar Asheiyeh on January 28, 2020 near the Hamra checkpoint in the Jordan Valley. The full image shows several more military members and several more farmers. The original photo, as best as I can determine, was captioned, "An Israeli soldier checks identification documents of Palestinian farmer's in a field near al-Hamra checkpoint in the Jordan Valley January 28, 2020".
While certain posters would like to present this photo as proof that (Jewish) Israelis are unnecessarily violent, it is clear in the picture that the weapon is held significantly to the right of the farmer's person and not in line of fire. It is also obvious that the military individual is looking at something in his left hand (ID) and that neither the farmer nor the soldier is at an especially heightened awareness. In other words, it does appear to be a routine check, rather than a point of conflict.
Why are there soldiers checking the ID of farmers? Turns out this was the day Trump's Peace Plan was announced. There was significant call for incitement and tensions were high. Israel increased its presence in the area in response to this incitement and, as expected, the next day there was a large protest involving 600 Palestinians.
Picking herbs is incitement?Why are there soldiers checking the ID of farmers? Turns out this was the day Trump's Peace Plan was announced. There was significant call for incitement and tensions were high.
No. Calls for riots are incitement. Calls for riots were happening. Military presence was increased because of the calls for incitement. Part of that response was ensuring that people present were there for peaceful purposes and not for violent ones. Entirely reasonable.
