'Let's break this down into one simple question: Did American (not Republic of Texas) troops attack Mexican troops prior to the declaration of war by Mexico?'

What possible difference could that make .... one representative of lying thieving murdering slaver scum would be distinct from another in precisely what significant manner? .... two word answer to your question is, i dunno ... amusing to see you beginning to admit that mejicanos were attacked though -g- ... and let me please point out once again <sigh> that these Américas extend from north of the north pole to Cabo de Hornos on the south, therefore the use of the adjective 'american' to denote a single one of the nationalities therein is presumptuously arrogant of you, and more than a little deceptive

Project for you, should you ever truly be interested in learning on the matter - find out why mejicanos took the opportunity of the napoleonic wars to kick off control by the peninsulares, and the manner in which los liberales chose to do so ... look for their inspiration, as compared with the liberales of other peoples at the time ... try to separate out your own preconceived notions of the racism involved, the religious hatred, the 'freedom'-slavery issue, and view it as it really was ... look for greed, that's what you'll need to get going your might is right policy in the first place, isn't it

Another project might be, is try to relate your tack here to the topic of this thread
