Did the Jews con their con man Western masters and win the God Wars?

[Minimalist]

Modern scholarship has identified that Rome manipulated the Jews into rewriting their scriptures and turn their militant God into a pacifist God

Whoa, there. Atwill's fantasies are crap.

The Romans solved the jewish problem the way they usually solved problems: By killing people, burning down the whole fucking country and telling the survivors to get the fuck out.

The Romans had no trouble with "the jews" after the bar Kochba revolt was put down. They did not need to waste their time getting them to re-write their fucking scriptures.
