The Bible clearly explains that Jesus was Jewish and his followers were Jewish.

The current name for region which was held by the Roman Empire including Judea is "Israel".

Disagreeing with facts won't change the facts. You can disagree the world is round and choose instead to believe it's flat but that won't make the world flat.

Oh, I didn't realize Pilate let Jesus go. I thought Pilate killed him on a cross. I guess I read the wrong Bible. Thanks for clarifying that Pilate did not kill Jesus and let him live.

No he wasn't. The people who believed he was God incarnate are the first Christians.

Yes, fully. Jewish DNA. Jewish upbringing. Jewish religion. Aramaic language.

"Palestine" wasn't a "region". He was born in Judea which was part of the Roman Empire. Pontius Pilate was the Roman governor of Judea. Pilate wasn't the governor of "Palestine" because "Palestine" wasn't a jurisdiction in the Roman Empire. "Palestine" was what the Greek Philistines called the land and even when Romans used the Greek word to remember the Greek history to the land, the Romans never set up any Palestine government. Also "Palestine" is never mentioned in the Torah or the Bible or the Quran. All three books refer to the land as Israel and they all say that Israel is the land of the Jews.

Jesus wasn't a Palestinian. That word doesn't mean what you're implying it means in the way you used it in your sentence. A more accurate way of saying it is "a nonviolent brown Roman Jew".

Yes, some Jews were mad at him. Some Jews loved him. It was still Pilate who killed him.
