"The real shocker might be what comes next: the execution of Crockett by Mexican soldiers, a movie scene that's sure to be seen as sacrilege by rabid Alamophiles who like to imagine the myth-shrouded "Lion of the West" going down fighting."

Either way you see it...the Texas soldiers at the Alamo were murdered by Santa Anna's soldiers. And 1 in 4 of the Texas soldiers was a Mexican who was rebelling against Santa Anna's rule. He was the Saddam of his day.

Of cource now they have Vincente Fox who is leading and promoting a differnet type of Mexican invasion. May he rot in hell.

That may have been true overall in Texas (I haven't checked the San Jacinto order of battle), but the list from the Alamo shows only 8 or 9 of Mexican descent. To be sure, the Grand San Antonio Families (of Mexican descent) did support the Texians.
