I've thought of something else. If all the evil in the world is due to free will, then so is all the good in the world. If god truly lets us do whatever we like, then he is not a personal god. He does not intervene. So in essence, god did nothing except set off the big bang, since everything after that is our own "free will".
Also if he truly does believe we should have free will, he wouldn't have helped Moses out of Israel. He wouldn't have turned Lot's wife into salt, he wouldn't have sent his son down to earth to die for our sins, and so on.
