[edit] Summary

Picture from 1972 Munich Massacre. From [1]

Photographer: Kurt Strumpf/Associated Press

[edit] Descripton

A Black September terrorist on a balcony in the Olympic Village in September 1972, during what became known as the Munich Massacre, in which 11 Israeli athletes were kidnapped and killed.

[edit] Fair use in 1972 Summer Olympics

This is a historical photograph of one of the persons killing most of the Israeli Olympic team during the 1972 Summer Olympics, an event which became headline news around the world. The inclusion of this image adds significantly to the article on the 1972 Olympic Games and locating a free replacement is either impossible or extremely difficult. The quality of the image is rather poor and it seems unlikely that this image will detract from the commercial value of the original. Valentinian ^(talk) 20:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use in Operation Wrath of God

I am extending the above rationale to include the use of this image in the article Operation Wrath of God. The 1972 massacre, especially its shock and audacity, prompted this response operation, and this picture is important in demonstrating this connection.--Joshdboz 23:09, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Licensing

This image is a faithful digitalization of a unique historic photograph, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the photographer who took the photograph or the agency employing the photographer. It is believed that the use of this photograph

to illustrate the event in question where:
The photograph depicts a non-reproducible historic event, and no free alternative exists or can be created, and
The image is low resolution and of no larger and of no higher quality than is necessary for the illustration of an article, and the use of the image on Wikipedia is not expected to decrease the value of the copyright,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information.

If this does not accurately describe this image, please remove this tag and provide a different fair use rationale.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
