Short answer:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmeta.wikimedia.org%2Fwiki%2FAvoid_copyright_paranoia&ei=ISGDSt5knIS2B5r8sdcK&usg=AFQjCNHsI04ksMFd9HAp-R3-jlrb-WiLqw&sig2=FPPHcLB8blzSOtp-2hU9Bg

Medium answer:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Poland#Armia_Krajowa_images_up_for_deletion
and follow the linked discussions including IfD vote

Long answer:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_movement

We used to have Template:PolandGov for that, but it got deleted as it 
was non-commercial
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Piotrus/Sandbox/Template:PolandGov

For why we need commercial permission, see
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Licensing/Justifications

IIRC I and others tried to contact Ministry to get them to use a free 
license but they never replied. Perhaps we could try again. In my 
experience with those issues what works is either being lucky (knowing 
someone) or quantity; hence if readers of this list would over the next 
few days email infoww2@poland.gov.pl (and because it's easy, also 
infosolidarity@poland.gov.pl i rzecznik@msz.gov.pl) and ask them to make 
their content freely licensed, perhaps we will get somewhere.

We can point out to the existing high quality articles we have, and to 
the images that were deleted.
