Fair-use rationale for use in Muhammad al-Durrah incident
Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws, and the stricter requirements of Wikipedia's non-free content policies, because:
- It is a significant image, and has been presented in evidence at two court cases in Paris.
- The image has no monetary value that our use of it would affect.
- It has been made available free of charge by the copyright holder.
- It is being used for informational purposes in an article about the event it depicts.
- We have no reason to believe the copyright holder would object.
- The imagery and its historical significance are a key part of the story and the article would be significantly poorer without it.
- A French ballistics expert commissioned by Philippe Karsenty presented a diagram to the Paris Court of Appeal in 2008. It included a position called the "pita", in which several sources say Palestinian police officers stood, armed with automatic rifles.[1] This position does not appear on the France 2 cameraman's diagram in this image, which marks that area as "Fields". This is a crucial point. It's therefore important to show both diagrams side by side.
