Default Torture vs. Interrogation

I wanted to as this question, because I hear a lot of people in the news and otherwise discussing enhanced interrogation as torture. The following is described as enhanced interrogation by SERE: (Survival , Evasion, Resistance and Escape). Most of these, if not all were prohibited by the 2005 Detainee Treatment Act:

Prolonged isolation
Prolonged sleep deprivation
Sensory deprivation
Extremely painful "stress positions"
Sensory bombardment (such as prolonged loud noise and/or bright lights)
Forced nakedness
Sexual humiliation
Cultural humiliation (such as desecration of holy scriptures)
Being subjected to extreme cold that induces hypothermia
Exploitation of phobias
Simulation of the experience of drowning, i.e., waterboarding.

So my questions is this: You have an enemy who has information you need to save lives and he refuses to share what he knows. How do you get it?

If you would like, you can reference the 2006 Army Field Manual.
