Operation Mongoose
Project Name : Operation Mongoose

It was the failed Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961 that directly influenced the implementation of Operation Mongoose shortly thereafter, a direct assault by the CIA against Communist Cuba. CIA cells collaborated with, of all things, the American Mafia, throughout some of these operations. These included, but were not limited to, arms deals and industrial sabotage efforts, all with the intention of removing Fidel Castro from power in Cuba by 1962. The escalating tensions between Cuba and the United States, specifically the Cuban Missile Crisis, reportedly put a halt to Operation Mongoose, although some academics, such as author Noam Chomsky, maintain the terrorist efforts continued throughout and after the crisis.
