Why do people hate the Jews when it was the Italians who killed the Rabbi Jesus?
The Jews are blamed for the death of Jesus because it was the Jewish religious leaders who manipulated Herod and Pilate into crucifying Jesus by charging Jesus with breaking certain Jewish laws making him worthy of death. The Romans would have rather released Jesus that day and crucified Barabbas. But the Jewish mobs at the behest of the Jewish leaders clamored for the release of Barabbas and the crucifixion of Jesus.

There is not now ... nor has there ever been since the split into two kingdoms in the 'old testament' ... any single leader of the Jewish people.

What are some examples of how Christ was unfairly treated by the Jewish leaders?
The New Testament refers to the leaders as "Jewish" simply because they taught the Torah, or the Bible for Judaism. On the contrary, when it was said Jesus was "stoned" by the Jews, it was the people that didn't believe in the aspects of the Son of God, or didn't think about their beliefs that much. Jewish leaders questioned him by saying he was a devil that casted out devils, called him a prophet, called him a man, and of course stoned and mocked him according to the New Testament. Mocking included saying things like, "If you be God, just tell us," or "If you be God, do this." But it is important to keep in mind that nothing was truly "unfair" to Christ in a Christian standpoint, since it is believed that He is the light of this world and how we comprehend it.
Is the New Testament is the Jewish bible?
No, Jews do not accept the validity of both the Christian Old and New Testaments. The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach which is what the Old Testament was based on.
