Actually, to avoid similar acts of zionist aggression, it will need to remove itself from every single economic conference, cultural summit and sporting competition. The risk is too high. The nation’s fate is at stake.
Lebanon should also consider withdrawing from the UN, in case the Israeli ambassador cowardly photobombs his Lebanese counterpart, or, God forbid, in case the President (when the country will have one), coming to make an important speech at the General Assembly, unaware of the lurking danger, gets an accidental selfie with an Israeli government official.
As a matter of fact, if every Lebanese traveling or living abroad gets photobombed by an Israeli, the country will go to hell. Millions of Lebanese suspected of collaboration with the enemy, maybe even accused of high treason, perhaps never allowed to return home.
Imagine the mayhem. Tourism will dramatically drop, businesses will close down, unemployment will rise, the crisis will deepen and, on the long run, the economy will collapse.
Israel will win the war without firing a single shot.
Conclusion: resisting Israel is good, but resisting stupidity is even better.
