The statement holds a degree of validity, but must be measured against World History and not just a squabble between a stronger and a weaker neighbor in the name of American Imperialism. If blatant theft had been intented, then certainly all of Sonora and Baja California would have been included in the treaty. It is undeniable that the US acted in an Imperial manner, and that it took by force of arms what it wanted.

You could say Arizona was 'stolen' from Mexico. In 1848, something occurred called 'the Mexican Cession'. The United States acquired a large portion of the western land from Mexico, and part of that was most of Arizona. A later cession acquired the other part of Arizona.
