I was thinking more of the Fifth Column for the enemy within and Vaterlandslose Gesellen by Adam Scharrer, novel, 1930, was simply an anti-war novel, I am sure he didn´t use the expression that way.

Davenport-Hines’ “enemies within” for spies) an equivalent might be the German 19th/20th century “vaterlandslose Gesellen”.

Depending on the historical context, “Reichsfeinde” (used during the Empire for socialists and Catholics) or “Volksfeinde” (during the Nazi regime) were used, too. I think it really depends on the context, which translation fits best.
