Fair use for Timeline of the 2009 Iranian election protests edit

This character, Handala.gif, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I, Yug (talk), feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. the purpose and character of the use is for nonprofit educational purposes;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the character in any way;
3. it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
