Are there any acts that would be likely to make a public stand like that?

The Finnish act windows95man has been talking about protesting to the Finnish media, but we don't really know how yet. He also mentioned that there may be other acts with him.

Not sure about this year, but a few years ago the Icelandic act Hatari brought out a Palestinian flag.
