Sorry, I think I was editing my last while you were posting this.
To answer your question, if lives are involved, I suppose you do whatever is necessary. But again, that's not for me to decide in a forum like this. Which is good.
However, I don't think that there is much of a corelation to one person and a bomb and hundreds of people -- most (if you believe the aformentioned Generals report) of whom know little or nothing important.
Finally, "experts" who discount torture as a valid interrogation technique also say that physical violence also doesn't generally do anything except make the victim say whatever it is you want him to say -- not necessarily the truth.
