No. Officially the US was not involved, but American volunteers (including former Congressman David Crockett) went to the Alamo specifically to fight for Texan independence. In 1836 the US had no grand designs on Texas. Even ten years later Texas was considered a lesser addition to the US when compared with California.

Texans, the vast majority of which had been immigrants to Mexico within the past ten years. A very small number of them on the Texas side had been born in Mexico.

Most would have been from central Mexico.

Why was the Battle of the Alamo being fought?

During the Texan War for Independence, there was a battle at the Alamo Mission in south-central Texas in 1836 because of the Mexican intent to seize the Alamo (and San Antonio) in pursuit of full control of their Texas territory. On the Texans' side, the intent was to prevent the Mexicans from gaining control of this base of operations while larger forces were gathering elsewhere.
