It may be a deal in Germany-it used to be a issue here in 60s ans 70s but now its sort of common culture.
I'm sure its big deal for many EU and its not only about Islam
Question is what you expect from integration.
I'm only concerned with radicalism and withdrawal.
One thing is sure ....you can not take millions of emigrants with no common ground and not suffer consequences because there always will be the miserable angry ones.
I'm not sure if you got the irony in my previous post. I thought you were aware that Iranians are in general well integrated here, for various reasons. I referred to the fact that you often see exile Iranians protesting against the appeasement policy the EU has against the regime in Teheran, and they are more concerned about religious fundamentalism because they experienced it first-hand. You even often even see Iranians taking part in counter-protests against demonstrations of arseclowns who praise Hezbollah. So in this is the part where they are not well-integrated, as Otto Normalgerman sadly does not do this.

Integration to me means - like you said - to accept common basic values, mostly the basic rights, expressed in the constitution. If someone wears Lederhosen or not is not my concern.
