Free will

[brewer]

You need to do more than just make the assertion that foreknowledge contradicts free will. You need to justify the assertion.

I know that I will go to work tomorrow, but that foreknowledge does not constrain me. When I go to work I will do so of my own free will, enacted at the time. Why is God's foreknowledge any different?

I roll the dice. It could come up any number from 1 to 6, randomly. It comes up 6. Does the fact that it came up 6 make the roll any less random? Now that it came up 6 do we decide that was the only number that could have come up, with no other number possible? No. It was random. Why would God's foreknowledge of the roll make it any different?

If god knew it would come up six prior to the roll, as it must if god is truly an all knowing god of past, present and future, then any randomness is simply an illusion. It only feels random to you. If it did not come up six then the omniscient god does not exist. You can have one or the other, you can't have both.
