Please point me to the extreme right rising, because I haven't seen a single bit of evidence of that outside of small irrelevant political parties that hold no power.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegida

It started in Germany, and has gotten sub-organisations across Europe. (This is the most recently). But over the last decade, yes, saying extreme right has been rising is exagerrating, but overall, the political landscape (and not just petty organisations) have gotten more and more right-turned, and in some cases those right-wing parties have some pretty extreme opinions, especially when it comes to immigration.

But I think the likes of Pegida, and its sympathisers are only contributing to legitimize the picture various Islamic terror organisations are trying to paint in their propaganda, and thus are helping them recruit more people, which is certainly a bad thing.

All that article tells me is that a few thousand pissed off Germans protested against immigration (with the largest group at 25k, shortly after the Hebdo incident which is understandable). It's pretty obvious that areas most negatively affected by the refugees are going to have movement sprout up against them. 

I would say that more right winged politics will gain popularity out of the refugee crisis, as the current left dominated landscape has set the current table.
