Whatever happened to the Je Suis Charlie lot?

Whatever happened to the Je Suis Charlie lot?
I'm sure they give a huge number of f*cks.
Like Kneecap, their profile has been massively increased by people who'd never heard of them before getting all upset.
They may, or may not. Remember that comedian Currie fella, who seems to have a significant fall off in work after his little hamas supporting stunt
And will anybody ever be held to account?Israeli military used 500lb bomb in strike on Gaza cafe, fragments reveal
The Israeli military used a 500lb (230kg) bomb – a powerful and indiscriminate weapon that generates a massive blast wave and scatters shrapnel over a wide area – when it attacked a target in a crowded beachfront cafe in Gaza on Monday, evidence seen by the Guardian has revealed.
Experts in international law said the use of such a munition despite the known presence of many unprotected civilians, including children, women and elderly people, was almost certainly unlawful and may constitute a war crime.
And will anybody ever be held to account?

Ah, another act you hadn't heard of until the media told you to think they were anti Semitic?
I've been reflecting about this Bob Vylan Glastonbury incident and how counterproductive it has been to the Gaza atrocities. Last few days so much "bandwidth" has been taken on news sources discussing the BBC failures, how vulnerable Jewish people are feeling, criminal investigations/enquiries, criticism of Glastonbury organisers, Vylans being dropped by management/venues(?), etc., etc. all whilst Israeli atrocities continue and innocent Palestinian civilians killed.
And without knowing Vylan's motives I do wonder if it was more about raising his own profile as highlighting the atrocities being carried out against the Palestinians.

On the plus sides:
- he doesn't have to go to America in the near future, and
- he hasn't been dclared a terrorist.
