"The distinction between "fair use" and infringement may be unclear and not
easily defined. There is no specific number of words, lines, or notes that
may safely be taken without permission.
Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for
obtaining permission.
Copyright protects the particular way an author has expressed himself; it
does not extend to any ideas, systems, or factual information conveyed in
the work.
The safest course is always to get permission from the copyright owner
before using copyrighted material."

Don't skirt these questions:
- did you ask for permission to use the copyrighted material?
- has the owner asked you to remove the material, and have you complied?

By the way, what is depicted is NOT unlawful; your argument for the use of
the copyrighted material is invalid.
