How did the destruction of the First and Second Temples contribute to the diaspora of the Jewish people?
It wasn't so much the destruction itself that contributed to the diaspora. It was the fact that the Temple was destroyed by foreign armies who had overrun the Holy Land. These armies killed hundreds of thousands of Jews. In the First Destruction, the Babylonians carried the Jewish population off to captivity in Babylonia: they forced the Jews into diaspora. If it weren't for that, the Jews would have remained in their land even without the Temple. In the Second Destruction, the Romans didn't force all the Jews out of the land, but they did kill over one million Jews and enslave many others. The whole central region of the land was depopulated. They also imposed harsh decrees and taxes, and many of the Jews chose to emigrate to Babylonia and elsewhere; again, not because of the Destruction of the Temple, but because of the harsh conditions in the land. Unlike after the First Destruction, some of the Jews did remain in their land after the Second Destruction.

What do Jews get out of their pilgrimage to Jerusalem?
When the Temple was standing, the Torah (Deuteronomy 14:23) states that a visit there would make a person more God-fearing (aware of God). However, with the destruction of the second Temple in 70 CE, Jews have not gone on pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
Who destroyed the second temple in Jerusalem?
General Titus (later to become Emperor Titus) of the Roman Empire supervised the Destruction of the Second Great Temple of the Jews. It is important to note that these people were not "Israelis" since that term refers to the citizens of a modern country. They were "Jews", "Judeans", or "Israelites" depending on which term you prefer.
