“Integrate or leave” shouldn’t be controversial in the slightest degree. Why are only European and North American states not allowed to preserve their cultural identity?

“Court rules Muslim girls MUST swim with boys after Government says integrate or leave,” by Rebecca Perring, Express, January 10, 2017:
SWITZERLAND has won a landmark court case, which has ruled Muslim parents must send their children to mixed swimming lessons.
The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) said school bosses are justified in enforcing the “full school curriculum” and children’s “succesful integration” into society.

The landmark case comes after two Swiss nationals, of Turkish origin, from Basel refused to send their teenager daughters to mixed swimming lessons.
Education bosses said exemptions were only available for girls who had reached the age of puberty – which the girls hadn’t reached at the time.
The parents were ordered to pay a fine of around 1,300 swiss francs (£1,100) for “acting in breach of their parental duty” after a long-running fued [sic] in 2010.
