So... a country should warmly embrace and accept people who besides a desire to cover up everything apart from their eyes; also by and large - support female genital mutilation, gender segregation, death for apostasy and blasphemy, and stoning gays to death?

You could try embracing the ones willing to change instead of tarring them all with the same brush.

If you honestly think i'm in favour of genital mutilation, gender segregation, etc, you haven't been paying attention. Or you're doing your best to pretend that you haven't.

how many generations have they had to integrate now? and they haven't budged an inch

You sure you're not so focused on the outliers and the media scandalfest that you can't even see the everyday successes? Get them to change, they get others to change. It sometimes takes generations, which takes time. And a welcoming society that feels worth becoming a part of, not one yelling ultimatums at you that start with "you're not one of us unless..." while you're still getting off the plane.

You'd be surprised how many families that are as [nationality] as [symbol of nation] are only one or two generations removed from stubborn settlers who refused to integrate with their new home. Chances are, many of the people in favour of this law will count among them.

none of it sounds particularly pleasant or compatible with western ideology

Western ideology is already a bastard chimera of other cultures as it is, and that's arguably its biggest selling point. It's naive to think you can take something so adaptable and lock it down with a "this is western culture for all time, starting... NOW!" mindset.

so we should just sit back and do nothing? they refuse to integrate

You'd be surprised how well sitting back and doing nothing can work in regards to integration, if you're patient enough to let it happen instead of insisting on a half-assed quick-fix.

The problem is, to truly integrate, the base culture has to be willing to absorb parts of the new culture into itself too, and doesn't even have to do it in even close to equal measure. It strikes me that this is the elephant in the room. One side expects the other to do all the compromising. How often does this ever work without fostering resentment?

This just seems like cutting off your own nose to spite somebody else's face.
