The best you can do is miscontextualise an ayah which clearly frees itself from nationalism in attempt to say it welcomes it? It doesn't surprise me. Kaafirs are naturally stupid.

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّا خَلَقْنَاكُم مِّن ذَكَرٍ وَأُنثَى وَجَعَلْنَاكُمْ شُعُوبًا وَقَبَائِلَ لِتَعَارَفُوا إِنَّ أَكْرَمَكُمْ عِندَ اللَّهِ أَتْقَاكُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ

O mankind! We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Verily, the most honourable of you with Allâh is that (believer) who has At-Taqwa [i.e. one of the Muttaqûn (pious). Verily, Allâh is All-Knowing, All-Aware. [Al-Hujurat 49:13]

What does this clearly state? That superiority is based on piousness and not nationalism or tribalism.

Way to shoot yourself in the foot, you ...
