> Was that how it worked in imperial Japan after WWII??

We are going to need a Japanese to answer this better, but my understanding is that having the emperor and other respected Japanese leaders behind the changes went a long way towards making it work in Japan, otherwise it wouldn't have. What is more, Japan had a very disciplined culture to begin with and the word of emperor was beyond reproach. If you can meet similar conditions in Iraq, then you can make it happen. Otherwise, good luck.
