Associated Press is reporting the discovery of a system of tunnels in Jerusalem that were dug in preparation for the revolt against the Romans in 66-70 AD.
For millennia the official story has been that the uprising was spontaneous. The Romans did not believe it. They razed the city.
Now, two millennia later, the truth is being uncovered. The ancient Jews created an elaborate system of underground tunnels and stocked them with large quantitites of provisions in preparation for a revolt.

A lot of good it did them. They started fighting among themselves and one faction burned up all the provisions, which is why the city fell as quickly as it did.
