Maybe I'm not following you. this sounds like an "attack" on the movie itself to me:
" The concerns are shared by responsible Catholic, Protestant and Jewish theologians, clergy and citizens. A committee of nine Jewish and Catholic scholars studied an early screenplay and unanimously found it to be historically inaccurate, unfaithful to the gospel narratives and to project a uniformly negative picture of Jews. Mr. Gibson and his Icon Productions were aware of and approved of the script study until they received its conclusions. The screenplay depicts the Jewish society at the time of Jesus as the central force behind the decision for crucifixion, graphically implying that the Jews bear the responsibility for the death of Jesus." ect.
But then I can be kinda dense
