Well said.
It is not “God is good”, it is “Allah is Greater”.

YHVH is God, silly Christians. Allah is a demon principality.

"Allahu Akbar" is literally translated to English as, "Allah is Greater!"

As far as I'm concerned, "Allahu Akbar" just means "Shoot me now!", and I am happy to oblige.

I believe there is truth to this. Some of the ancient Babylonian writings that have been uncovered mention a god named Allah.

I know, I know.

There is a place at the Honolulu airport called the “Aloha Snackbar.”

Been there a few times myself.

Excellent exposition.

So much for the “one God, many paths” idiocy.

Dear Jan.
The correct translation of ‘Allah u Akbar’ is “My God is grater than you God”. Not ‘Allah is Greater!’

[Ann Archy]

I thought it meant “MY GOD IS GREATER THAN YOUR GOD”!

[Ann Archy]

I did NOT see your post before I did mine!!

Islamic apologists and their politically correct western useful idiots say that "Allahu Akbar" is simply an Arabic term interpreted as "God is Good".

That is such total bullshit that I stopped reading right there.

In addition, all talking heads in the networks and other MSM, whether 6 months or 60 year veterans, universally insist on saying ": "allah Akbar." As if they are unable or incapable of learning and remembering it's "AllaHU Akbar!"

...and it means, "allah is greater..." understood, the unspoken "...than your God"

[Jan_Sobieski]

Yes, but their god is Allah...hence, Allahu Akbar
