As an American, i just don't see how an American dying is any more significant than any other citizen dying

It is significant in that the US is responsible for its' citizens welfare, i.e. for Americans. If an American is murdered, the US should do all that it can to bring the murderer to justice.

The US has insisted on this for Abu-Akleh , but seems to not care if Jewish Americans are killed by Palestinians. The assumption being that either Israel will take care of it, or that the US doesn't expect much from the PA to be able/willing to punish the murderer.

Why wouldn’t it? America is one of the countries who actually reacts when their citizens are killed by terrorists. They are also a major player in mediating the Israel-Palestine conflict. A Palestinian terrorists shooting an American citizen is down right stupid. Hopefully they find who is responsible and any who worked with them. Since many of these groups are directly tied to the Palestinian government hopefully the US holds them accountable if they are involved.
