The Watchtower printed a book "Worship the Only True God" in 2002. The front cover is a water scene of the ocean and dark mountains in background. Nothing extremely special. Guess What ? PHOTO CREDITS: Cover: U.S. Navy Photo Page 180: Children: UNITED NATIONS/J. Frank. Now since when does the Watchtower need to borrow pictures from the United Nations, or the US Navy ? There are lots of pretty pictures on the Internet to use.............why did they use these pictures ???
Not again!!!!

Even if they had pulled the image off the net if the author has not released it they still according to copyright law have to cite the author of the photo. Having scored a number of pics off Wikipedia I have run into this before.
Sorry hon..you're barking up the wrong tree on this one. They are merely obeying the law in citing the author even if they didn't get it directly from the author.

Maybe the WTS needed to use it to fulfill one of their UN-NGO obligations. :-) -
read good books
Their continuing their love hate relationship with the U.N. eventually maybe friendship with the U.N. will become a 'matter of consiounce' like all the other doctrinal changes when it becomes desirable for the WTS in their own interest to change, like voting now, or standing for the national anthem, etc., etc.

Yes this is the right tree. Witnesses are given piles of rules about dealing with government entities, especially military. This excuse wouldn't cut it for the average dub. They could have (and if they were following their own rules should have) gotten suitable pictures elsewhere.
