The US didn't support it, the US invented it. The invasion was a contingency plan of the Eisenhower administration and altered to ensure failure by the Kennedy administration. It then went off half-******, and the US backed out. The US had a special interest in Cuba, and had been trying to figure out something to do with it since 1898, but government officials being government officials, it never occured to any of them to let the Cubans sort it out for themselves. Of course, there were huge business interests at stake, and Castro eventually nationalized a lot of US businesses, who took a soaking. That's never good in American politics, where money talks.

Start of the US invasion of Vietnam?

Was the absence of air support by the US the cause of the Bay of Pigs failure?

Reportedly, the CIA had been promised US air support by US President Kennedy. Since it was clear that the US was behind the invasion, why air support did not arrive remains a puzzle. As an aside, there were rumors that the CIA was so angry with JFK, that they were responsible for JFK's assassination. This has never been proved.
