The left says "Hey, we're a nation of immigrants. The land was taken from the Indians, who were genocided. And there were many waves throughout US history, therefore you have to allow more immigration." Notice that the conclusion doesn't logically follow, and...

You're right, and it's easily shot down with an argument that will leave people sputtering. One can point out that if one were to look far enough back in one's family tree, one would certainly find a direct ancestor who was conceived through an act of rape.

Eliminate all of the rapes in history, and none of us would ever have been born. Therefore, by the logic used by the Far Left, we would all have to be in favor of rape, in order to avoid the charge of hypocrisy. Reductio ad absurdum.

Reduction to the absurd - The vile nature of the conclusion shows us how bad the philosophical idea leading to it is.

What bothers me in the case of the European countries is that these countries have well-defined identities going back for centuries or even millennia, that are diluted and ultimately destroyed through immigration.

I don't merely want to see an end to the forcing of immigration on European countries that don't really want it, I'd really rather that they didn't let any significant number of people in, period. A world without a France or a Hungary is a much poorer, emptier, duller place.

In the case of America, I can accept the notion of selectively letting people in, so long as this doesn't go on being the free-for-all it has been. I'm fine with the idea of the American people inviting new people in, if that's what they want to do, and if they're being careful.

As long as we're looking at people who will fit in peacefully (no jihadists) and productively, I don't see that as an undermining of our identity, I see that as a continuation of the process of forging that identity.

I mean, it's not working and the people don't actually want it, but the elites and government have different ideas.

The elites? You mean the rich kids? We know what they want - cheap labor, and the chance to live like aristocrats, lording their power over the now starving masses. Given the chance, they will make a ruin of the world.
