I think the point is that a country should not be accepting immigrants who have no intention of joining the national identity.
The lack of emphasis in modern Western governments (the Japanese, South Koreans, and Chinese have no such conflicts) on maintaining nationalized economies, and thus the collective investment of nationalized residents in a single identity embodied and guarded by the central government, should be well-noted.
So as you see, an argument can be made that global capitalists are indeed a natural enemy of the nation-state, just as much as mal-adjusted immigrants and jihadis.
Although on different ends of the argument, globalists and jihadis share a closer world-view than either one would be comfortable admitting: both seek the economic (and thus total, if you like a Marxian interpretation) destruction of the modern nation-state and seek to replace it with a post-modern One World, New World Order.
Cheers,
David
