The Jews hated being ruled by foreign heathen powers, they saw it as punishment from God for their lack of devotion/worship of false idols. The Messiah was meant to free them from, though of course Jesus didn't, nor did he bring world peace another prophecy. It seems like Jesus didn't fulfil prophecies that couldn't just be written into the narrative.
