Excluding a group of people from the society or from the protection of the society (as slaves in antiquity) can be part of the social contract.
As I understand it, it is ennemies who are not part of the social contract as they want to destroy/change it.
I think the point was that it can be difficult or impossible to establish a social contract in an arbitrarily delineated "nation" that includes traditional enemies within its borders. An example might be the former Yugoslavia.
