To the Editor:

   While "the recent accidental deaths of the hostages are only the latest example of how difficult it is for the C.I.A. to know exactly whom it is killing ", this is only half the problem. Since the CIA is not part of the U.S.'s uniformed military service, its officers, agents and contractors are unlawful combatants. Every CIA killing is presumably a war crime.
