I think Erik means that the Italian wiki is free to 1) restrict
acceptable content further than Wikimedia requires, or 2) find ways
within Italian and U.S. law (combined) to accept material under
copyright exceptions like fair use. (Yes, I know Italy does not have
"fair use.")
Content that is non-commercial-use-only or specially licensed to
Wikipedia or Wikimedia is counter to Wikimedia's mission of free knowledge.

We found it (images with permission), WMF told this is not valid. We
have no alternatives. Saying the "the italian is free to develop an
exemption policy", then, is false.
