A Reluctant Warrior
Cantlie was never a soldier. He was a photojournalist, a man who used his camera to capture the stories of war and conflict. But when the Syrian civil war broke out in 2011, Cantlie felt compelled to go to Syria and document the human cost of the war.
Cantlie spent months in Syria, documenting the lives of ordinary Syrians who were caught in the crossfire of the war. He photographed the destruction of homes and schools, the suffering of the wounded, and the devastation of families who had lost everything.
In July 2012, Cantlie was kidnapped by a group of ISIS militants. He was held captive for over two years, during which time he was subjected to torture and abuse.
Life in Captivity
Cantlie was held in a series of prisons and detention centers. He was often beaten and tortured, and he was given very little food or water. Despite the hardships he endured, Cantlie never gave up hope. He knew that he had to stay strong, both physically and mentally, if he wanted to survive.
Cantlie spent his days in captivity writing and drawing. He wrote about his experiences, and he drew pictures of the people he met and the places he visited. His writing and drawings helped him to keep his sanity and to stay connected to the outside world.
In 2014, Cantlie was released from captivity. He returned to the UK, where he was reunited with his family and friends. Cantlie's story is a testament to the human spirit. He endured unspeakable horrors, but he never gave up hope. He is a true survivor.
