The History Channel reruns its programs. I watched the same program last Sunday Night - 7:00 pm CDT. (Maybe it was Saturday night?) And you're right about the omission of the Jews. I wondered too and at first I thought it was p.c. rearing its ugly head.
Then I figured that since the program was about the Roman practice of Crucifixion itself, including the Jewish part might have just muddied the waters and gotten into religion which the show was not about.
Anyway that was my conclusion.
That being said, the History Channel DOES go p.c. especially on WWII and the 'Russian Front'. 'Soviet Union', Red Army', 'Communists', etc is never uttered. Its always 'Russians' and 'Russia'. They do the same thing when they show those film clips of the SA Stormtroopers in those street brawls that the SA are fighting against Communists. For some reason the History Channel is Communist friendly.
I’ve noticed that about History as well. They use the term “Russian” when “Soviet” is much more accurate...mainly because millions of the troops in the Red Army weren’t Russian at all. They were Ukranian, or Kazakh, or Georgian, or Azerbaijani, etc. “Russian” is not an exact replacement for “Soviet”, Russia was only part of the Soviet Union.
