...it portrays ROMAN soldiers as the actual killers of Christ.

They did it at the behest of the Jews. Jesus was charged with blasphemy, which was not a crime under Roman law. Blasphemy was punishable by death under Jewish law; the Jews asked the Romans to carry out the sentence for them.

Jesus was killed by the Romans,
at the request of the Jews,
on behalf all of mankind.

[11th Earl of Mar]

So if you pressured me to kill your wife because she violated your religion [as the Jews pressured the Romans to kill Jesus] that would make me less of a killer?
