Lie down with terrorists and you should expect to be kidnapped: Photographer Worked With - and Kidnapped by - Arab Terrorists. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

Emilio Morenatti, a Spanish photographer working for the Associated Press, was kidnapped Tuesday morning in Gaza. His photos show he was trusted by Palestinian terrorists.

No terror organization has yet taken responsibility for the kidnapping, but Hamas Authority sources said a search was underway.

Morenatti, 37, was forced into a car near his apartment by four armed men in Palestinian Authority-controlled Gaza, according to another AP employee. Spain’s Foreign Minister Miguel Angel Moratinos told reporters in Madrid that officials were acting to free him “as quickly as possible,” and that he had contacted PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and other PA figures on the matter.

Morenatti was apparently trusted by PA terrorists, as his photos include inside views of Al-Aksa Brigades terrorists preparing for attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers. Morenatti has photographed an Al-Aksa terrorist laying a bomb, and another one carrying a reel wire; the caption of the latter specifies that the terrorist had set “up an anti tank bomb following an Israeli strike.”

Yet another photo by Morenatti shows an Arab mother of eight carrying an apparent suicide explosives vest. Its caption states that the woman is “one of a group of at least 20 women in the village that [sic] are given, according to the local Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades commander, suicide belts every night in preparation for an expected Israeli assault on the town.”

Here are two of Morenatti’s propaganda photographs from a session with a team of suicide bombers, previously featured at LGF:
