You forgot to say that they fought to preserve slavery and they even wrote it in their constitution. also Mexico never attacked them, they the Anglo-Americans were taking ranch by ranch, city by city expelling the Mexicans, Indians and Spaniards in a campaign of ethnic cleansing, the proof is in San Antonio how Travis, Crocker and Bowie were going to die at the hands of Texan Indians and former slaves, without first having seized the city of San Antonio at gunpoint and also telling the few survivors of the place that now that city and others in which they have been living for more than 300 years and in the case of the Indians hundreds of thousands of years was no longer their home and that the white man was now going to own as much land as he wanted to steal from them. the Anglo-Saxons were not the victims, they were shameless thieves. That's why they put up the sign, come and take it, that is, if you have the choice, come and recover the land that legitimately belongs to you. Furthermore, the war was not only fought by the invaders from Texas, but also by American soldiers without uniform, paid and armed by Andrew Jackson, intervened in the robe ensuring victory for the Anglo-Americans. please do not expose yourself and rather read a true history book and do not continue to tell these myths that defend the white supremacy agenda. They were not poor helpless, the Anglo invaders had been planning to steal territory from Mexico for decades between San Huston Stefhen Asutin and Andrew Jackson, this was not something exposanan but they only took advantage of a pretense that they themselves created, to achieve their mission of stealing territories to Mexico.
I think I would have to consider the deployment of a Mexican force in October 1835 around Gonzales an "attack". The question of slavery was hardly a concern for most settlers as there were only about 2600 slaves around at the time compared to a Texian population over 10 times that size. The process of landowners from the South bringing in those slaves was more prevalent after 1840 when the slave population grew to 40,000 in the state prior to the Civil War as the plantations became a bigger industry. In 1835 one would find the vast majority of slavery in a few plantation sites mostly along the lower Brazos Valley. As for the abolition of slavery from Mexico, it was very unevenly enforced in many places in the country. Slaves could still be found in places where mining was a large part of the economy despite the attempts of some Mexican officials to end it.

By the logic you've been taught, we should nullify every war in history. Good luck with that.
