[edit] Fair use rationale for Bombing of Dresden

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It is a historically significant photograph taking during World War II.
It is of lower resolution than the original.
It is being used for informational purposes in an article about the event.
Because the image depicts a non-reproducible historic event, there is no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
