But was Zapata a Robin Hood, or was he a heroic crook whose history is being redefined?

He sure as hell killed a lot of people.

Methinks that Zapata’s personal principles were not as heroic as those of William Travis or Davey Crockett at the Alamo.

You're thinking about Pancho Villa. He robbed people to give to his soldiers and was a crook and a murderer.

Next, you'll be claiming that Che Guevara wasn't a hero either! / s
