Low resolution? |

Purpose of use |
To identify the subject of the article. The subject is dead, and very few photos have been taken of him. |
Replaceable? |
The subject is dead, and given his status as a wanted man in the Middle East, very few photographs of him are known to exist, none of them freely licensed that we can establish. |

Licensing
[edit]This image is a faithful digitisation of a unique historic image, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the person who created the image or the agency employing the person. It is believed that the use of this image may qualify as non-free use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Please remember that the non-free content criteria require that non-free images on Wikipedia must not "[be] used in a manner that is likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted media." Use of historic images from press agencies must only be of a transformative nature, when the image itself is the subject of commentary rather than the event it depicts (which is the original market role, and is not allowed per policy). | |
If this tag does not accurately describe this image, please replace it with an appropriate one. |
Owner: Israel Defense Forces (IDF). I (SlimVirgin) wrote to the IDF in 2005 to ask them to confirm that the image had been released, but they did not respond. Because the status of the image can't be confirmed, I'm claiming fair use.
Source: It was obtained from Yossi Melman, The Master Terrorist, 1986, the last of the images between pp. 122-123 and from this Libyan news website.
- No free licence version is available, and there is no way to obtain one.
- We have no reason to believe the Israeli government would object.
- The image is iconic and widely available.
- It has no monetary value that would be affected by our use of it.
- It is being used to illustrate an article about the subject.
- It significantly enhances the readers' appreciation of the subject and the article would be the poorer without it.
