Select all that apply. Which actions by Castro led to the Bay of Pigs Invasion?

History
1 answer:
Serga [27]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Though many of his military advisors indicated that an amphibious assault on Cuba by a group of lightly armed exiles had little chance for success, Kennedy gave the go-ahead for the attack. On April 17, 1961, around 1,200 exiles, armed with American weapons and using American landing craft, waded ashore at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba. The hope was that the exile force would serve as a rallying point for the Cuban citizenry, who would rise up and overthrow Castro’s government.  

The plan immediately fell apart–the landing force met with unexpectedly rapid counterattacks from Castro’s military, the tiny Cuban air force sank most of the exiles’ supply ships, the United States refrained from providing necessary air support, and the expected uprising never happened. Over 100 of the attackers were killed, and more than 1,100 were captured.

The failure at the Bay of Pigs cost the United States dearly. Castro used the attack by the “Yankee imperialists” to solidify his power in Cuba and he requested additional Soviet military aid. Eventually that aid included missiles, and the construction of missile bases in Cuba sparked the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, when the United States and the Soviet Union nearly came to blows over the island.

Vinil7 [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the excerpt from "Woman's Rights to the Suffrage." It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our [descendants], but to the whole people – women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government – the ballot. Which fact supports Anthony's opinion that all adults should have the right to vote?  we, the whole people, who formed the Union. they are denied the use of the only means of securing them . . . And it is a downright mockery to talk to women . . . not to give the blessings of liberty . . .

Answer:

We, the whole people, who formed the Union.

Explanation:

According to the text Anthony shows that the constitution allows the right to vote for American citizens, the people. In this, she affirms that citizens are all adults who have sufficient capacity to discern and reason, including men, women, whites and blacks, that is, all adult people in the country and the right to vote guaranteed by the constitution. This can be reinforced through the lines "It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union."
