Zapata has been identified as a [[communist]] by [[21st century]] [[historians]] because of his emphasis on [[land reform]].{{fact}}  He believed [[liberty]] flowed partly from this and partly from an armed citizenry.  Persons throughout [[Latin America]] with this [[ideology]] have been continuously pigeonholed as communists by the [[United States]] and other [[conservative]] forces at least since [[Operation Success]] in 1954.  It is not clear what [[Vladimir Lenin]] and other contemporaneous leaders of Communism thought of Zapata while he was alive.
