Time is running a lead piece on hate crimes in Europe. All minorities are being targeted, including gays. You simply cannot blame all of this on Israel's policies, now can you?
Your theory has to be based on the assumption that people are logical in thought.
Unfortunately, it's at this early point that your theory crumbles to dust.

He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
We don't have a problem in here. Don't know about the rest of the Europe though.
Naturally it wasn't reported how foreign students have been attacked in Russia and beaten to hospital by neo-nazis. I guess it don't count.

Hate crime is suddenly fashionable and reported in the media more.
Is it actually more frequent? Is it simply an excuse for anti social behaviour or to belong to the group identified as opposing the target group? Is it an increasing problem? Not clear.
There does seem to be an anti-semitism problem in France but Time is making a big jump to connect other reports of hate crime into some europe wide conspiracy or degeneration. This sounds more like "lets make our american readers feel safe at home with a Republican government to protect them".
This is Americas fault. You've been calling as wimps for so long, that our youth is fed up with it and the minorities pay for it. Just kidding.
Muslims, arabs are number one target of hate and all that, so I don't know how we would blame Israel for anything? Right?
THere are punks everywhere, honestly I have not seen ANY indication of any kind of rising level of hatred against minortities in Europe. But I live in remote place when thinking about Europe, so I wouldn't know. News don't indicate so.
Anyway, the first case in that link is minority hassling with another minority. If Jews can be called minority that is. Wasn't those bombings in Istanbul made by locals? That's not attack against minority?
Someone discovered a large swatstika painted to some wall? Is this alarming, honestly?
Few attacks on synagogues in France, granted this is a legit attack against minority.
Someone posting a message that is racist on the internet? Give me a break.
White power band playing in Czech? There are no white power bands in the US? Is this something new?
I stopped reading after this... I don't know if they were actually cases that should be worrying.
Sure, this cases are not to be taken too lightly, but come on, is this actually news? I don't think this makes Europe once again a place of true racism and hatred. It's racist and full of hatred just like everyone else is. I dont' know why we have to be singled out. And again we are talking about few countries. Nationalism and neo nazis have gained some ground in Eastern Europe and Russia. This has been reported in the news several times.
German neo nazis have been found to be planning some strikes but were caught by the police. Allegedly they have established alliance with muslim terrorists because they both have common enemy (Americans, Jews).
In da butt.

Yes I certainly blame Israel for attacks on Kosovon albanian asylum seekers.
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

To answer more correctly my opinion, yes there is racism in Europe, but it's not on huge rise.. IMO it's in the same level like always. I think cops and investigators needs to push hard and find organized groups who does these things and deliver justice. And catch the individual cases too. But to say this is the new era of some kind of Nazism in Europe is like saying sky is falling and seeking for hysteria. I can assure you, there's no big new problems. Just the same old problems we have always had. They are problems, I'm not saying they aren't problems.

What I MEAN TO SAY is, that sure there are attacks going on every now and then, but it's been like this always in Europe. I don't think it's really rising, people are just reporting more. But this is only my feeling, this no one can know for sure.
People are ganging up slowly. I do see more new and bigger problems in near future though. There are more poor people and gaps between poor and poorer. Ethnic gangs are more, and they are clashing each other, and in the future they can get wilder.. if things like unemployment etc go on, I can see even more frustration being released on minorities. So, we should get these people on leash, before we really do have news about it.
