There is no evidence for that.

Read the fucking things and learn a little history. There had been 3 Jewish revolts by 140 when xtianity seems to get going. It isn't that hard to see where the Roman world would have been pretty pissed with them.
Oh, I've read the history - however, the idea of a trouble maker getting crucified and his radical interpretation of Judaism getting put to a halt, with cruxification, a penalty which was routinely handed out is more likely than what you're proposing, which is rather illogical.
In fact, death via cruxiication was seen as so shameful that many Christians didn't even depict it because of how embarrassing it was - non-Christians laughed at the absurdity of a god who died via cruxification; the popular Christ image on the cross only gained popularity once the Romans banned cruxification.
It had absolutely nothing to do with getting people to hate the Jews.
