American support for the rebels in Cuba was primarily fueled by a combination of economic interests and strategic considerations. The United States saw Cuba as a potential market for American goods and investments, and supported the rebels in order to gain influence over the island's future government. Additionally, the US government viewed Cuba as strategically important for maintaining stability in the region and preventing the spread of communism. This support ultimately led to the Spanish-American War and the eventual independence of Cuba.
