The story leaves out the part where
President Woodrow Wilson betrayed Pancho Villa, which is why Villa attacked across the border. Wilson had his hand deep in the Mexican politics and various revolutionary leaders. Villa believed Wilson had committed to him. They Wilson moved money and support to someone else. The attack across the border followed.

More than that. Villa had the corrupt government force pinned down in a small Perimeter at Agua Prieta, directly across the border from Douglas Arizona. Wilson let the Mexican army cross at Eagle Pass Texas, ride trains in the U.S. to Douglas Arizona, then walk directly across the border and reinforce the perimeter. Villa figured if the Mexican Army could operate on US soil, so could he.
