Well, I can easily imagine that it could be literally impossible to break a sufficiently determined person, if someone doesn't want to speak then they will endure incredible amounts of torture without breaking. History is full of examples like this. But if you spend the same time befriending them and making them feel like they are on the same side as you....then it's hard to imagine it couldn't lead to a positive outcome.

Yes I agree and the recent report on the CIA shows some evidence for that [1].

This I have a harder time believing, and besides this article, I didn't know of any evidence.
