I doubt the part about royal bodyguard/assasin but I could agree on the possibility of frustrated extremist with unfulfilled expectations of Jesus' ministry and objective.

It's an interesting speculation on writings that are not verified as accurate and were written at least a generation after the events. Try writing an accurate account of my grandfather's life, as an example of why this is a problem.
The very story of the betrayal has major problems, the Jewish leaders knew Jesus quite well and had the power to execute him as well.

Well that is a point of view that I haven't considered before. But I thought it was James that was his brother have I missed something here.

Many of Jesus' followers were zealots.
