I've previously made up response to posts in this and other threads regarding this movie but I decided not to post. In this case, I have to say something: what is written in the bible has never been immutable and it's folly to take it as an accurate description of history or even as a "Message." It has been changed, interpreted, reinterpreted, edited, and generally slanted over the millenia to serve political and personal motives each time it had been altered. To suggest that your stereotype of a group is afraid of scripture because it's "the truth" reveals your own prejudices and baseless assertions.Now, in regards to the movie and why jewish organizations are quick to criticize: as I see it, it was a crowd of poor human beings at their worst behavior who tortured, jeered, and humilated jesus. The crowd was persecuting jesus because he was a rebel leader who turned out to be a farce (to them). It just happened to be that romans were the oppressors and the oppressed were mostly hebrew. The hebrews didn't get jesus killed because of their religion. They did because they were human beings whose poor condition made them bitter and quick to persecute. It's no fault of the religion and the belief systems of that religion.
Anyway, it's all a bunch of posturing from both sides.
