During the Roman occupation of Judea, the Zealots were the ones agitating for armed rebellion. There were several small rebellions, and then in the year 68, the Zealots got the upper hand and rose in the Great Revolt or First Jewish War, driving Rome out of Judea. Rome retook Jerusalem 2 years later, destroyed the Temple, and crucified an estimated 10,000 captured Jews, but it took them another 2 years to crush the resistance.

What relationship did the pharisees have with the Romans?

The principal Jewish sects at the start of the first century CE were the Sadducees and the Pharisees. While the Saddducees resisted foreign influence and sought to protect the influence of the wealthy in Jewish society, the Pharisees were much more amenable to foreign influences. While not exactly allied to the Romans, the Pharisees were more willing to coexist with the Roman administrators than were their fellow Jews.
