The video was taken down, so I looked it up on youTube. It shows the shadow side of what can happen when you throw open the gates. Agitators, aggressors will arrive alongside those who come with gratitude and a willingness to work.
But this does beg the question: is a society that for thousands of years promulgated oppression of women and children, and the harshness of Shariah law, are they ready for a democratic state? They may be unruly, but soon will be pacified by such benefits as: access to clean water, food, housing, and the opportunity to free their minds from eons of tyrannical self loathing. How about an age-of-enlightenment style education as prerequisite to receiving government assistance? I do not recommend relying solely on home schooling.
Ironic to consider that many of the concepts and underpinnings of the Age of Enlightenment came from ‘Saracen’ culture. Arabic numerals. The concept of zero (although India claims at the least, co-authorship of that idea too). The Library at Alexandria which the Crusaders mindlessly burned, another scar on the collective psyche of Allah’s children.

they are, assuredly, not ready. and that is the point of such a weaponized population.
