ELI5: As an American, I notice there seems to be far more tension with the Muslim culture in Europe. Why is that?

Because Europe is a hell of a lot closer to Muslim dominant countries than the US
. 
The entire African continent is a very, very short boat ride away from Europe. Immigrants, many of them Muslim, pour in to Italy, Spain and France every year from Africa and the Middle East in their hundreds of thousands. 

They are poorly educated, don't try to integrate with the locals and generally offer absolutely nothing to the country they are arriving at and so it is no surprise that the locals do not want them there. 
They also cost an awful lot of money to support.
