What did Diomedes steal from Troy and why?
I am unfamiliar with Diomedes "stealing" any of Priam's daughters, but it was not unusual for a conquering army to take slaves back to their home cities. Women and female children from the ruling family would have been very valuable.

What is the story of Queen of Troy cause of Trojan War?
It was not the Queen of Troy - she had nothing to do with the the cause of the war. It was 'much manned Helen'. Helen was wife of Spartan king Menelaus. Visiting prince of Troy Paris (Alexander) got her to come back to Troy with him, also smuggling out a lot of Menelaus' wealth. Menelaus called on his brother Agamemnon, king of Argos for help, so they organised all the neghbouring kingdoms into a piratical expedition to Asia Minor, and set about looting the area. When after 10 years they had cleaned out the coast and islands, they invested the only place left worth looting, Troy. After the Greeks gained the upper hand, king Priam of Troy offered to give Helen back, but the Greeks demanded also Menelaus' property which was more important. Priam refused, so the seige continued, and after the fall of the city, Menelaus took Helen home along with the loot as compensation.
Was Menelaus married to Helen?
Yes Helen was married to Menelaus and married also to Prince Paris of Troy and after his death to Deiphobus his brother, both sons of Priam King of Troy. After Deiphobus died at Menelaus's hands, he took back Helen as his wife as he had intended from the start of the Trojan war.
Why was the Trojan horse in the Trojan war?
The Trojan Horse's point in the Trojan was was so that the Greeks could get into Troy. They had to use this scheme because the war in Troy was across the Aegan Sea, and they wanted to get back to Greece ASAP. So, they build a giant horse, pretended to sail home but really hid in the horse, the foolish Trojans took it thinking it was for Poseidon.So, that night the Greeks that were hiding in the horse broke out of it, opened the gates, killed King Priam and took Troy. Also I suggest you watch the movie "Troy" or read The Iliad by Homer.
Why did cassandra from the Trojan war consider her gift to be a curse?
No one believes whatever Cassandra predicted. Basically, she sees these horrible images of what was going to happen to Troy and people she know, but everyone just thinks she is crazy. Some of Cassandra's predictions were that Paris will bring the destruction of Troy, Priam bringing Hector's body back from Achilles, the Trojan Horse, and Agamemnon's violent death.
