No historian records the events of "A" ... period.
If you assume (and you ARE assuming it) that the events in Matt 24 are past events, then Daniel and Revelation, the minor prophets, Psalms ... just about every prophecy has been fulfilled.
Can you point me to a historian who records when Jesus Christ came in the clouds of heaven? Don't see any mention of stars falling from the sky, or the Son of Man coming in the clouds of heaven in Josephus. Don't recall Josephus reminding us that after the coming in the clouds Jesus received the earthly kingdom, and all nations then started serving Him. Seems like to this day you wont find anyone in Saudi Arabia serving him ... wouldnt you see that as a clear violation of "all nations" ...
Since all the tribes will have morned when they saw him in 70 AD, its probably a double good idea to have a couple of historians in different parts of the world ... since this is a global event for everyone to see.
Good luck with that ...

Josephus records the events extensively.

I would argue that I am "assuming" very little - just because my deductive reasoning leads in a different direction than yours doesn't mean I have none. But yes, given that the events of Matthew 24 are past events, the same is true of the other prophecies.

Josephus records it in some detail. Our difference stems from different ways of understanding the text.

I would argue that this is a case of expecting the Bible to be speaking in our terms and following our way of thinking. We are not the primary audience of most of the Bible.
