I suppose you ask because of the Crucifixion of our Lord? Crucifixion was actually a Roman punishment. Capital punishment to Israel would have been stoning. It was not the Jewish people who sent him to his death, but the religious leaders.
The Pharisees were equal to what Jesus called false prophets in Mat 7:15. That is who we need to watch out for. Not the Jews.
Here is a link to my sermon on false prophets:
http://p207.ezboard.com/fjehovahraphafrm7.showMessage?topicID=2.topic
Eze 33:11 Say unto them, [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
He does not hold a grudge. Why should we?
Besides all of this, Jesus gave up his life. It was not taken from him.
Mat 26:53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
One more thing:
Are you white? If so, do you think yourself responsible for the salve trade 200 years ago?

Jews are people like everyone else . They have a very high percentage of scientists , inventors , chemists , etc .
They are highly admired by intelligent people . They are hated by those do not have the intelligence or ability to invent anything .
The more the Jews accomplish , the greater the contrast .
No , I am not Jewish , nor are there any Jews in my family .

The same way we love everyone else. What makes Jews undeserving of love? As far as i know, Jews are humans just like the rest of us and there's no reason why they should be treated differently from the rest of us.

There is probably a lot of jealousy regarding this ethnic group because they are so successful and a lot of stigma is attached to them because many feel they were responsible for the death of Jesus. They are not longer the chosen race as one commentator implied because as a group they failed to recognize the Messiah Jesus. Many Jews were converted, so there is no religious reason to dislike them. As Christians, we are to love all fellow humans, even our enemies.

How can people not love Jews?
How can people love people like you who hate people for believing in something that you don't agree with?
See, we're just so loveable!

What would make a Jewish person any different from all other people? We are told to love all of God's children, and the Jewish nation is the chosen nation of God as described in the Old Testament.

The same as you love anyone else.
Jehovah loves all ppl,
Christ loved all ppl,
So I love all ppl.
I even can find forgivness in my heart
for the men that murdered my brother earlier this year.
I'm still sad, horribly sad that he is asleep right now.
And I won't see him, until the resurrection.
But, according to the law of man, & God;
they are held accountable for the taking of life.
So be it.
