No. Aside from the fact that Jews in Israel are from all over the world (roughly 1/3 from Russia, 1/3 from the Arab World, and 1/3 from Western Europe and the USA, with sprinklings from elsewhere), there is no view in Israel of how a Jew should look. There are European Jews, Middle Eastern Jews, Indian Jews, African Jews, and Chinese Jews in Israel.

Of course, this fails to note how Arab Israeli citizens (ethnic Palestinians, Druze, Bedouins, and Arab Christians) receive equal treatment under Israeli Law and even have political parties which have participated in every Israeli Parliament, some of which are opposed to the Jewish State. Further, there is no attempt to alter demography by preventing non-Jews from marrying and reproducing. In fact, aside for Religious Jews, Arab Israelis have the highest birth rates in Israel. While there are demographic concerns in Israel, no Israeli politician or organization has ever contemplated trying to prevent Arabs from marrying or having children, because this is not what Israel is about.

Is Zionism racist towards Jews?

No. Zionism was created by Jews for Jews. It is the belief that the Jews should have political self-sovereignty and is the patriotic sentiment behind the Establishment of the State of Israel. Precision : Among Haredim Jews, some are Anti-Zionists (some even having "friendly" relations with the Iranian president). However, even they do not accuse Zionism as being racist towards Jews. Their issue with the State of Israel is that they do not believe that Jews have a right to a state prior to the Messiah's arrival. It is not that they believe that the state or the ideology is discriminatory towards Jews.
