None of those three above were jewish or christian. Josephus was jewish, but the author of the TF was not jospehus, or jewish. Interpolation.
We don't have accounts of jesus. We have accounts of what people believed about jesus, by people who didn't believe those things. It's good to be skeptical, in any case. Pliny spends alot of time formally licking the emperors grundle - which is just as likely to be deference as it is ignorance. Tacitus wrote an anti claudian campaign ad into his history, and suetonius was a tabloid author.
Their existence is more problematic for christianity than their absence would be.
