The United States is responsible for the deaths of millions just this century so Kirby is right but its not something you'd expect a government spokesperson to admit

When can we expect to hear such specific news about those who committed war crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine etc.? What about Guantanamo Bay?

The divorced dad-of-two appeared to be keeping a low profile, parking his Chevy SUV several blocks from the property and ignoring questions as he slipped inside via a back door.       
He was still wearing his typical military-style getup, including an army field jacket with an Afghan flag patch, backpack, aviator shades and a keffiyeh scarf – a nod to Meek's celebrated dispatches from the frontline in Afghanistan.
The April 27 swoop sparked fears Meek was being targeted for his trailblazing journalism which has exposed shocking military cover-ups, friendly fire deaths and foiled terror plots.
'Independent observers believe the raid is among the first – and quite possibly, the first – to be carried out on a journalist by the Biden administration,' read a bombshell report in Rolling Stone.
The magazine alleged that agents spent ten minutes inside Meek's top-floor pad and found a laptop containing classified information, citing 'sources familiar with the matter' – but friends and former colleagues of the popular, well-regarded reporter say that doesn't add up.
They point out that ABC has not made any legal intervention, nor voiced its support for the star correspondent, who is said to have cited 'personal reasons' for abruptly quitting after nine successful years at the alphabet network.
'If he did have anything like that, classified documents or similar materials, that would presumably be for a story he was working on,' said a former colleague.
'This is a guy who has done a lot of good in the world. ABC would be firmly in his corner if it was for legitimate journalism. None of it adds up.'
The Department of Justice has not disclosed its reason for targeting Meek but – in an unusual step – Dena Iverson, principal deputy director in the DOJ's Office of Public Affairs, released a statement insisting that agents had acted lawfully.
'While the department cannot speak to any specific case or activity, the Department strictly adheres to the Attorney General's July 2021 memorandum prohibiting the use of compulsory process with regards to members of the news media acting within the scope of newsgathering activities,' she told the Daily Beast.  
The policy was brought in last year by the Biden administration to prohibit feds from seizing materials from reporters without authorization from the deputy attorney general.
The Department of Justice did not respond to multiple emails from DailyMail.com asking for an update on Meek's case.

VOA News: Luiz Ramirez: Future Role of US Troops in Afghanistan Debated
. Source:The New Democrat  The only thing that American troops in conjunction with NATO should be doing right now is helping to train and develop the Afghan military so Afghanistan can defend itself from domestic and foreign invaders including the Taliban and other terrorists groups. We’ve been there twelve years and have our own problems back at home economically and financially. That these wars…
