You do realize that "Allah" means "God"? Like "Yahweh"? Dios? Gott? Dieu? In monotheistic religions that is pretty standard and should always be translated to English with God.
What, tl;dr? It doesn't.
And to say God is God is not considered acceptable by muslims, not from the English as I understand it. It must be exclusively Aramaic. imo obviously because it doesn't translate right.

yahweh (god of abraham) and allah (god of abraham) are the same entity.
Actually it's:
Yahweh “I AM WHO I AM” or I AM THAT I AM. Personal usage (i.e. I name myself etc.).
Allah "The god" Ĕlāhā, or Alaha. Impersonal usage (i.e. I name you etc.).

The same Thegod carved onto temples to the pagan moon-god, Allah or Ĕlāhā. No, they are not the same, not in name nor context, and where context is prevalent to the issue i.e. deeds. It's like the difference in name and context of Hasbinbad and Hasbin or Has Been. It's more rooted in the interfaith movement to mix and match, like what the pope hat has been doing, moving towards a new one world religion along with his anti-capitalist and political movement. But Islam isn't a compatible religion, it's an ideology, it's mostly political, and one of war and conquest. Any real unity is coming from their (Islam and Catholicism) political and economic aspects, which is based on the ideology aspect.
