Isn't the question somewhat moot on the basis that Pinocchio isn't real? I mean, who's going to win a fight between Pinocchio and Santa Claus? At least the fight would be watched by the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. And since when were only Muslims permitted to invoke the name of Allah? Maybe a mispronunciation - the poor bastard does have a wooden tongue. I wonder how a method actor would go preparing for that role?

I don't know, but I am definitely going to make a point of getting a copy of "Pinnochio" and watching for that myself.
I did once hear someone say that Sesame Street was Islamic, or at least the Count (I think that's who it was?) Because he says "Allah peanut butter sandwiches"
Maybe it's a misunderstanding of what was actually said? those are called mondegreens, when someone hears something other than what was actually said
Like the song "there's a bad moon on the rise" and people hear "there's a bathroom on the right"
