Re: when talking about islam
[ QUOTE ]
why do we call the jewish god "god" but the muslim god "allah" when they're all really just dhimmi?

Probably the same reason we have Jews and Christians and Presbetyrians (sp) and Lutherans and on and on and on. To denote the slight differences between them all.
For instance, I wouldn't call the color dark gray the color black, because it's not, even though it's very close.
On a side note, I'd love to see a war take place in America where all the different catholic and christian denominations would yell out the slight differences they have and run at each other, engaging in a slap fight to see who's religion is better.. "You believe in using birth control! Have at you!!"
