I don't think you can nuke the faith out of people, though.

The Japanese were shocked into changing their way of thinking as a result of getting nuked. Not to say it would be the same for Arabs but it's possible.

I don't think that's quite equivalent, since the Japanese leader was a sort of a god or at least the direct decedent of one. Gods who lose aren't gods. Besides, the reason for dropping the atomic bomb on Japan was to bring about surrender, not a change in religion. What it brought about was surrender and the end of the then current regime. Becoming secular was a side affect.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
