They generally keep themselves to themselves and are viewed as different, as such they fall into the role of scapegoat rather well.

I have no idea why Christians would have anything against Jews - yes I believe they played a part in Jesus' death but that was meant to be, they were following what was written. A kind of "if it wasn't them then it'll be someone else". I have no issue in acknowledging that Chistianity has roots in Judaism.
But as you well know, it's not just some Christians who have issue with Jews so my question still stand.
