From 1959-1960, Fidel Castro and other revolutionaries started the Cuban Revolution and overthrew [[File:Batista.png]] Batista. Fidel Castro was made the new leader of Cuba. In 1961, the [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States attempted to overthrow Castro but failed miserably in the Bay of Pigs Invasion, causing them to start using undercover operations to try and kill Castro. In 1962, the [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States discovered Soviet missiles in Cuba and thus began the Cuban Missile Crisis. The [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States said these missiles were illegal and violated international law, though this was hypocritical as they had stationed missiles in Turkey. After the Cuban Missile Crisis ended a week after it started, the [[File:Cball-US.png]] US would keep trying to assassinate Castro up until his death in 2016 by natural causes. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, Castro reportedly asked [[File:Khrusch.png]] [[Khrushchevism|Khrushchev]] to launch nukes to strike the USA, which can be seen as a form of [[File:Posadist.png]] [[Posadism]].
