Jesus plays no role in the life of Jews so we don't like or dislike him. It's a non-issue. Jews feel the same way about Jesus as they do about Buddha: just figure that is important to another faith.

The question implies that the problem between the Jesus and the Jews is that the Jews did not like him. This is not the case. The issue between Jews and Jesus is that Jesus did not perform the requirements to be a Messiah and actively violated some aspects of Jewish Law.

Individual Jews may like or dislike Jesus, but these are personal opinions and Judaism itself has no position on whether Jesus should be liked or not, only that if he existed, he was a failed Messianic Candidate (like Bar Kochba, Shabbetai Tzvi, and Menachem Mendel Shneersohn).

What did Jesus say about non-Jews?

Very little directly, but he did state directly that a certain Roman Centurion had more faith than any of the Jews.

Do Jews believe in the birth of Jesus?

Whether Jesus actually lived or died is of no importance to Judaism since Jesus himself is of no importance to Judaism. If Jesus lived, then he certainly was born, just like all other humans. However, all Jews reject the Christian claim that Jesus was conceived from a virgin. If Jesus lived, he was a human with two human parents.

Why did people like Herod and Pilate want to kill John the Baptist and Jesus?

Herod, like his father, was an evil man, jealous of his position and viewed Jesus as the prophisied of King and perceived Jesus therefore as a threat. Though professing to be religious Herod had closer ties with Godless Rome than his subjects. Pilate did not want to kill Jesus, in fact he gave the Jews an option to not so do. The Jews rejected that option, preferring a seditioness, murderer and thief be release to them and Jesus be crucified. Pilate stated he found no fault with Jesus but to please the Jews he released Jesus to them to be crucified.
