 * Comment -- This photo was one of a series of about three dozen published when reporters from the McClatchy News Service traveled around the world to interview former Guantanamo captives. Most of these images were taken in Afghanistan. I have requested, dozens of times, for the wikimedia foundation to get the professional opinion of a lawyers or lawyers who actually specialize in intellectual property law, to offer an informed opinion on the copyright status of images taken in Afghanistan.  We have have had hundreds of discussions over images taken in Afghanistan, or one of the other half dozen countries that have not signed on to International intellectual property agreements.  I have been told that although the wikimedia foundation employs a lawyer, he is not an intellectual property lawyer.
 * Some people consider images and other intellectual property originating in Afghanistan is like a gold claim during a gold rush -- all the rights belong to the first individual or organization to publish the image, in a country that has intellectual property laws -- without regard to whether they have any connection to the original creator.
 * Some people assert that any image originating in Afghanistan is permanently in the public domain.
 * Some people claim Berne has clauses that state that when citizens of countries that do honor intellectual property take images in countries that don't honor intellectual property, they own all the intellectual property rights to those images, when they return to a country that does honor intellectual property.
 * By this reasoning some people acknowledge that images taken in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia, by citizens of Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia, are permanently in the public domain.
 * Alternatively, some claim that images by taken by Afghans or Saudis in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia are only in the public domain if they are first published in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia.
 * Some individuals have argued here that, even though countries like Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia do not protect intellectual property, as a courtesy for the artists, writers, composers and photographers from those countries, we should treat their property as if it were protected.
 * So, this is all extremely complicated, none of us are lawyers, and the wikimedia foundation has not arranged for intellectual property experts to weigh in. Arguably, this image, and similar images, are in the public domain, which would render discussions of fair use moot.  The PD-Afghanistan template here on the wikipedia and the corresponding template on the commons diverge.  The template here says the image was first published in Afghanistan.  The template on the commons merely says the image is a "work of Afghanistan".  This is also a problem.  Geo Swan (talk) 22:50, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Individual has been released so the image can possibly be replaced. In response to the above, we don't have to be experts on intellectual property law, we just have to know wikipedia's non-free content policies, which say non-free photos of living individuals aren't allowed because they're replaceable. This is a prime example of a replaceable image. Also fails to fulfill NFCC. Swarm Talk 05:57, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment - given the subject is being held at Guantanamo Bay, I consider that enough to justify holding a discussion. PhilKnight (talk) 01:09, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Image is certainly replaceable. The government has already been ordered by a US district judge to release Mingazov. Considering that he is pending release from prison, there is certainly the possibility for a photo to be taken of him. Also fails to fulfill NFCC. Swarm Talk 05:50, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep -- I favor keep, because there have been other discussions where regular patrollers of unfree images have said when captives face a life sentence it is generally agreed that no free image is possible. Individuals like Belkacem Bensayah don't face a life sentence, per se -- because they have never been tried, and so are not being held under a judicial sentence at all.  Both the Bush administration and the Obama administration have gone on record -- they want to hold a significant fraction of the remaining captives, indefinitely, without trial.  This is essentially a life sentence.  BB stood accused, still stands accused, of being the leader of al Qaeda's Bosnian cell.  The US military intelligence establishment has claimed he made dozens of phone calls to Abu Zubaydah, described as a "senior al qaeda lieutenant", in the month after al Qaeda's attacks on 9-11.  They asserted that these calls were a sign that he was leading a plot to bomb the US Embassy in Sarajevo.  Personally I consider these allegations to be as flimsy as cobwebs, but they continue to be taken very seriously, so, presumably, he is one of the fifty who face detention for the rest of their lives.  Geo Swan (talk) 20:20, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom; WP:NFC #1 (subject is still alive). The theory that he will never be released is nothing but speculation. Fails to fulfill NFCC as well. Swarm Talk 05:42, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
