Arab Christians refer to God as "Allah" as well. Even Christians in some non-Arab Muslim countries do (like Indonesia.)

Thus either 'Allah is great' or 'God is great' may be seen."

I've never seen "Allah is great". Either "God is great" or "Allah akhbar", aka a translation or the actual phrase. Worth noting that the Iranian protestors are shouting "Allah akhbar" and Iran is not an Arabic seaking country.
