Improper translation. Allah is not God.
Not this crap again. Give it a rest. Allah is Arabic for God. Deal With it. Yes, in this case it's a different religion from Christianity.

Can you imagine the celebrations all over the Middle East if GWB ad lost. Osama would probably have been named Head Mullah for life.

I beg to differ, and please do try to be polite yourself. Facts are facts. "The dominant deity (of pre-Islamic Arabs) was the moon god in several variations, whose title was al-ilah -- the chief among all gods -- shortened by frequency of usage to Allah." (page 22, The Sword of the Prophet by Serge Trifkovic.) Trifkovic goes on to further explain that this moon god of those ancient times is Baal. A pagan god, one of many gods. Not the one God of the Hebrews and the Christians. BIG difference. In fact, further research shows that Baal is akin to Beelzebub. Perhaps you've heard of him.

"Allah" is a compound of Al-Lah meaning "The God". "Allahu Akhbar" does not mean "God is great" as a simple declaration of faith. It means "God is greatest!" as an 'in your face' about being superior to whatever and able to help them overcome you.
