No. Israel’s God is the God of Israel, Christianity’s is the Triune God of all peoples, and Islam’s is the God who, in the words of the great Jewish theologian Franz Rosenzweig, “might just as well not have bothered to create the world” (quoting from memory).

Israel’s is the Jealous God who worries about what you eat, Christianity’s is the God of Mercy, and Islam’s is the God who will lead you astray and throw you into hell just because he feels like it.

I could go on.

You could, except several thousand years of theology would disagree with you.
