I am not sure if this question is posed to start a flame war or something, but depending on your religion or education, there are a million different ways to look at this.
I am sort of on the fence spiritually, and I do believe that Jesus did exist.
If you take the bible literally, and if you look at the events historically, my opinion is that you can't blame anyone for killing Jesus.
He knew what he was doing the second he walked into the temple. He knew he would infuriate the Jewish leaders, and he knew that the Romans were on edge and would put down any sort of revolt harshly.
It is not like he accidentally did something that warranted the death penalty, or was murdered in cold blood. He did things that he knew would tick a lot of people off, and knew he could die because of it.
What I don't understand is why people are so hung up on a detail like that. It is two thousand years later, everyone from back then are dead now anyway. I don't see the sense in getting all worked up over something that you were not alive to expirience anyway.

God created man. Man fell to the temptation of Satan. God created the birth of Jesus with Mary. Man decided the fate of Jesus. Remember, Pilate had asked the crowd who should live. It was the crowd of people who said Barabbas (look it up). The decision was made and Jesus died. On the third day after his death, Jesus rose up from the dead and return to God. Jesus is alive today. Satan lost. The only thing Satan can do now is to take as many people away from God as he can. Jesus is the ultimate second chance for mankind. It is also a choice that has to be made FREELY by each person. Christianity is not the draft.
Christians are not supposed to hate any people, no matter what category you put them in. Love the people but hate the sin. People, themselves are not sin, but their actions and decisions could be, depending on what they did. It is for God to judge. Jesus has shown us how to live. The question is , will we live that way. It is a daily decision.

At the time Jesus lived there were lots of crucifixions,
The Government was headed by Hipocritical Power hungry religious Zelots and Jewish Bigots-Christianity was a dangerous Threat to the State,And Jesus pushed all their buttons Hanging out with 12 guys, and forgiving people, touching lepers, Healing the Blind, Raising People from the Dead, Walking on water etc etc
the state had no choice they were afraid of his power.
Gee, it sounds just like whats going on in these TIMES!!!!

Politicians, religious leaders, and the military of his day all took part in the death of Jesus. They are who killed him. I am not aware that any of these comprise a race, and so consider the second half of your question as unanswerable until such time as genetic studies have been done on the above three groups and it has been determined that any one or more of these actually do constitute a race. ~ Peace & Blessings ~

Everyone has the blodd of Christ on them. Everyone is guilty of sin. Therefore, everyone is responsibile for His death. Christians should not hate anyone. Jesus gave His life out of Love so that we may believe and have eternl life.

First I would like to clear the matter of Jesus dead,I beg to differ.....He did die but He is Risen! He is alive and close by.I think that God had a plan for his Son...It was to be.No people are responsible or are to be "blamed".... seems that it would defeat His Purpose /Plan.... Forgive....all were acting as intended,playing out the parts that had to be in order for the whole thing to happen ....Im certain God had forgiveness in mind as yet another test of our faith and obedience to His Word...

If you want to look at the Big picture
Gave gave Jesus up
The Jews set Jesus up
The Romans lifted him up (crucified)
Jesus died for YOUR sins and Mine
So we are all apart of the picture.

Technically speaking, if god/allah/whatever is the all-knower all-seer, then most should (although they don't) know that God sent Jesus to Earth to die, therefore God killed Jesus. PLUS... God knows and controls everything that is going to happen, therefore saying that "it was the Romans" would be incorrect or "the Jews" because God controls their actions. BAM... chew on that, God killed his own Son.
