Wierd concept I know. The idea that the state needs to look out for the best interests of its current citizens even if it means it can't make everyone on the planet its citizen.

"Why can't we just go back to the good 'ol days where nations lined up and shot each other like civilized folk, instead of *gasp* RACE mixing"

strange place the modern world where pointing out that making origami is just as effective and much cheaper than bombing the "axis of evil" country of the weak in achieving world peace gets you called Jingoistic. That part is where he's referring to some sort of utopia that would come about from his jingoistic ideals. Just once again stupidly ignoring the lessons of history that ultra-nationalistic movements don't end up very peaceful in the end.
