It depends which Cuban crisis you are talking about. The United States has invaded Cuba twice. The first time was from sinking a military ship. Maybe you have heard of the Rough Riders? They were a volunteer group that was lead by Teddy Roosevelt (before he was president) that was part of the first invasion. The other invasion was during the Cold War. The Invasion was called the Bay of Pigs. Cuba was allied with Russia and threatening the United States with Nuclear weapons.
There were many reasons why tension existed between the United States and Cuba in the 1950â??s, but one of the factors that did not cause this tension was the building up of a Cuban army. This is due in part because the US was the equipment supplier for the Cuban army prior to the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Cuba is an island nation, and the US is not.

Soviet missiles were in Cuba and US attempt to oust Castro was complete failure
Many factors contributed to tensions between the U.S. and Cuba in the 1950s. Cuba's army was growing, Cuba was impoverished by communism coming to power, and American businesses were nationalized.
Soviets were establishing nuclear missile sites in Cuba.
No. That was what led to the crisis. The crisis was that Russia was putting some nuclear missiles in Cuba as a deterrent to the bombings.

The main cause of the Cuban Missile Crisis was the 1500-km range of the Soviets' only usable ballistic missile. The only way they could terrorize us with missiles was to station them in Cuba, where there were already Soviet troops.
