Neither was Japan.

Nope, but the Japanese did have an ordered and industrious society before WWII. And they certainly had the "Protestant Work Ethic" down pat, even if they weren't Christian. Japan also had a homogeneous society = no sectarian violence.

This cannot be said for Muslims, particularly Muslims in Iraq.

So now you've moved the goalposts. Big suprise there.

Now a country has to have had an 'ordered and industrious' society in order for the people in it to want to be free.

And once again, you put cultural limits on God's power. I'd call that 'cultural relativism.'
