Well, first and foremost... it wasn't the "JEWS" but rather A JEW, and a bunch of Romans. The Jews are the chosen people... according to Christ, and not only that... but Jesus himself WAS A JEW.
The last supper was a Passover meal for Christ's sake.
All the anti-semitic comments aside.... Jesus NEEDED TO DIE FOR OUR SINS.... according to the gospels.... and that was why he was killed, re-incarnated, then died again.
If the Jews hadn't killed Christ, then there would have been some other religion for the non-believers to complain about.

You assume that they did.
1) there is absolutely no historical evidence that the biblical Jesus ever lived or that he was killed.
2) even the biblical account states that the ROMANS killed him.. not the Jews. That particular accusation has caused the death of thousands of Jews since it started. Isn't it time to stop spreading the lies?
Edit: better check your history there buddy.. those are all disputed accounts and proven to be fake. Nice try though. At least you know how to run an internet search or look up an apologetics site.

First off, the Romans executed Christ... but I can see that is not the thrust of your question.
If you are a Christian, then it is pretty much a non sequitor - he was supposed to die for the sins of mankind. Any other result would have been pointless from a religious point of view.
And to Kallan's point of no historical record of Jesus existing, I guess accounts by Pliny the Younger, Tacitus, Philo, etc. are just vapor? ; )

The jews didn't kill Christ. The Romans did. I remind you that he was crucified, a Roman punishment. Even if the Sanhedrin had had nothing against Jesus, the claims of Jesus and his following would have drawn their attention. So, there, he would have been sacrificied anyway.

The Jews would have escaped their curse. It would not affect the redemption in any way. Only a fallen Savior would do that.

If Jesus had not been crucified, then there would be no basis for Christianity. His death and subsequent resurrection were the whole purpose in His coming to earth - to pay the sin debt for sinful man, so that those who believe in Him may have eternal life.

There wouldn't have been a solution. Jesus was God's rescue plan for us - there wasn't another! Think people find the mystery of God's ways hard to understand, but it is intriguing and quite reassuring too I think.

800 years before Jesus was Crucified, Isaiah wrote this...
It explains God's plan for the salvation of the world through Jesus, why He was killed, and who for! I feel the Jews had no choice other than to have Jesus crucified. It was God's idea all along, to rescue us sinners from Hell, and to bring us all unto Him after we die.
Isaiah 53:1-12
Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness: and when we see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him.
He is despised and rejected by men, a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him. He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows: Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray: we have turned away, every one, to his own way: and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed and He was afflicted: yet He opened not His mouth: He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silet, so He opened not His mouth.
He was taken from prison and from judgement, and who will declare His generation? For He was cut off from the land of the living: for the transgressions of My people He was stricken.
And they made His grave with the wicked- but with the rich at His death, becuase He had done no violence, nor was any deceit in His mouth.
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him: He has put Him to grief. When You make His soulk an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. By His knowlegde My righteous Servnat shall justify many, for He shall bear their iniquities.
Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the strong, becuase He poured out His soul unto death, and He was numbered with the trasgressors, and He bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the trangressors.

What gives you the idea they did?
What is the proof other than the scripture that is available today?
What if the scripture is wrong?
What then?
Jesus will return this is a certainty!
What will he say to all those that have been wrong for so long?
Will there be gnashing of teeth?

The Jews didn't kill Christ, it was the Romans.
