The image is presumed to be in the public domain. Also, the Iraqi Baath Party released it to the public and because the Iraqi Baath party is now defunct it would not claim copyright in any case.

This image was created in Iraq and is now in the public domain because its term of copyright has expired according to the Iraqi Law (Arabic) (English).This work meets one of the following conditions:

It is a photographic or audiovisual work that is not compositive (artistic in nature) and at least five years have elapsed since the end of the year of its publication
It is another type of work and more than twenty five years have elapsed since the year of authors death and fifty years have elapsed since the year of publication.
On May 1, 2004, Paul Bremer, then head of the Iraqi Coalition Provisional Authority, signed an order modifying Iraq's copyright law of 1971. The new law entered effect that day but was not retroactive upon works already in the public domain (see paragraph 27). Works not already in the public domain on that date are henceforth protected for 50 years past the author's death, or 50 years after publication in the case of applied art, copyright held by a legal entity, and pseudonymous works. Non-artistic works published January 1, 1999 or after are still under copyright.

To uploader: Please provide where the image was first published and who created it.

This image is in the public domain in the United States because

it was first published outside the United States and
US copyright formalities were not complied with and
it was in the public domain in its home country on January 1, 1996.
