I must admit that I am quite impressed by this new kind of auto-censorship, I also thought that before fullfilling a project, and especially a business, you would think more than twice about its consequences.

Moreover, the invasion of Gaul is well described on a book called "Wars of the Gauls" (De bello Gallico in latin), written by Julius Caesar himself.

You learn that if you go to War School in any western country, it's a classic along with Clausewitz and Lao Tseu for example.

The war of the Gaul was a result of : 1/Roman expansionism 2/: a revenge and a way to stop gallic warriors to invade Rome as they did under Brennus in 390 BC (that's the one who said "Vae Victis" for latin literates).

The interesting fact about our topic and this is that we have plenty of historic testimonies from that period in th whole roman empire (war of the gauls is -48: -52 BC) and very few historical evidence about what happened with Jesus and the rest of his folks.
