From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Leila Khaled, formerly PFLP, well known photo, widely available, taken from http://www.bbc.co.uk/portuguese/especial/images/1327_eddieadams/1133817_addamspronto4.jpg
This image is probably PD. I claimed fair use only because I wasn't sure what else to call it in the absence of being sure it's PD. It's an historic, iconic image, one of the first of Leila Khaled, who was the first well-known woman terrorist, made all the more interesting because she was young and attractive in an otherwise all-male organization, and is wearing a bullet fashioned into a ring. It's a very famous photograph, widely available, and with no commercial value. Taken in the 60s/early 70s.
- I've changed the tag to PD. I can't find anyone who knows who owns the copyright. As I said above, it's an iconic photograph, very famous, published in practically every newspaper and magazine that has ever written about Khaled. I suspect someone from the PFLP took it and released it into the public domain back in the 70s. SlimVirgin (talk) 11:12, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

- Photos do not become PD by being widely published. Tag removed. Thuresson 20:18, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
