Pilates's job was to keep sending Israeli taxes back to Rome but he couldn't do that if Israel was in a state of unrest, so he did all he could to keep the peace.
For example he found Jesus not guilty at his trial and wanted to let him off with a whipping, but the snooty priests talked him signing the death warrant on the grounds that Jesus claimed to be a king which was treason against Caesar, so Pilate signed it to cover his ass and please the priests and their lackeys.

As noted before, DropShit, you're quoting your evil book of fairy tales again as if it had anything to do with past or present reality.  Really?  Is that ALL you have?  Pathetic.  There aren't even any Roman records of Yeshua existing, much less making a splash with a "royal" entry or a crucifixion.  (Of course, most Roman historians would have not been at all interested in the crucifixion of a barbarian rabble-rouser.)  But you should study Roman history.  Pilate would have allowed the snooty priests to live only because killing them would have caused riots.  Romans had no problem collecting their taxes - you paid or you died.  There are many records regarding crucifixion in Roman Judea - (it wasn't "Israel" at the time) quite a few complaining that they crucified so many Jews that they ran out of wood.  So who cares what the babbling book of fairy tales says?  Go study some REAL history for a change, unless you actually WANT to keep sounding like an idiot troll.
