Here is some prominent scholarly support for the views on immigration of the Westerners.

Harvard scholar pens
attack on immigration

It seems that when it comes to immigration, irrationality can cloud even the minds of people from whom profound research, detached analysis and clear conclusions are expected.

People like Samuel Huntington, the chairman of Harvard University's Academy for International and Area Studies, who wrote an essay - scheduled to run in the March-April issue of Foreign Affairs magazine - that will misguidedly add fuel to the anti-immigration fires.

Huntington's main problem is with immigration from Latin America, which, according to him, is at such a high level that it could cause the U.S. to face the loss of its "core Anglo-Protestant culture." And that's not all. He also predicts, rather apocalyptically, that the country could soon be divided into "two peoples with two cultures and two languages."

The columnist doesn't liike it, and goes on to quote disapproving remarks from various minority academics. I tend to side with them.
