No. The Jews were originally inhabitants of the southern kingdom of Judah after the adoption of monotheistic Judaism in the seventh century BCE, or perhaps after the Babylonian Exile. Scholars generally call the inhabitants of Judah before this time, Judahites. Palestine in the first century CE was home to Jews, Samaritans and gentiles. Samaritans were people of diverse ethnic origin who lived in Samaria, the land once known as Israel. 'Gentiles' was a Jewish term for 'foreigners', or non-Jews, but did not include the Samaritans.

Jesus was Jewish. Christianity is an invention of the Holy Roman Emperor.
Jews have always been an insignificant minority in terms of the global perspective. In the Roman Empire, Jews constituted less than 10% of the overall Roman population. This high percentage (relatively speaking for Jews) fails to note the massive populations of India and China, which at that period, had no Jewish populations and were each almost as populous as Rome.
Additionally, most early Christians were not former Jews but former polytheistic Greeks who converted from Peter or Paul's evangelism.

Why is Jesus Jewish and everyone else is Catholic?
Jesus technically wasn't Jewish. Throughout the gospel, Jesus is described as using Judaism to show that the Old Testament is valid but the truth (Christianity and the New Testament) is what everyone should follow from his preaching.
Why is Jesus a Jew And some people are not?
There are two ways that a person can be Jewish - either by being born to a Jewish mother (or, in some modern communities, to a Jewish father - though this is not strictly in keeping with Jewish law) or by conversion. Jesus was born to Mary, who was Jewish (as was her husband Joseph) and so he was a Jew. Since not everyone has a Jewish mother and not everyone has converted to Judaism, not everybody is Jewish.
Who was Jesus sent for?
Everyone. Every person ever created, Jesus was sent to save them. Everyone.

Why did the 12 apostles hate Saul?
Answer A: Saul, before his conversion to Paul, was a Jewish Pharisee who was tasked with the investigation of Jesus. (Remember, Jesus was considered to be a wayward rabbi from Galilee, a potential rebel and agitator, who aroused the wrath of the Jewish High Priests (the Temple Priesthood in Jerusalem.) Answer B: I believe apostles did not hate Saul as their Lord and Savior Jesus had taught them to love their enemies.
Did everyone love Jesus?
Not everyone loved Jesus. Naturally, his followers loved Him, as did the hordes of people whom He healed, and those who sought to listen to His preaching. However, most of the Jewish leaders did not love or even like Him, seeking his death.
