“They didn’t die defending US interests, they died defending Biden’s refusal to press Israel for a ceasefire. Their lives were put at risk by Biden to defend Israel’s ability to continue its carnage in Gaza.”

One has to wonder if the lives of three US troops will cause enough backlash in Congress to shut down our "escapades" in the region and bring the rest of the troops home, leaving Israel exposed and pressured into ceasing their genocide in Gaza as per the ICJ's instruction. But if the deaths of 30,000 civilians (with over 12,000 of them being children) doesn't caused a backlash enough to shut down our arming the Israelis, maybe nothing on this earth would. The US oligarchy just wants to dominate the world, and it doesn't care if innocents are massacred and it doesn't really care if its cannon fodder--I mean soldiers--are killed as well. All life is worthless to billionaires except their own, of course.
