Hebrew? He has a hard enough time speaking English....what a joke but I guess this is a EARTH ****TERING NEWS story for TMZ.

Good Lord!He's 7'1"???? Man, he's huge!!

And as for his Hebrew, it could have been worse, he could have wished everybody a Happy ^*& @$^*&@^$(@$^(!

L'Shauna Tova, Barach HaShem = Happy New Year, Blessed is the name (of G-d).

Ahhemmmm. No one is BORN Jewish. They are RAISED in the Jewish faith. I'm Catholic, and as much as I've been told I was born in Chicago and not Catholic City.

Why is it that Jews always go around saying I'm Jewish if you ask their heritage? It's their RELIGION.
Religion is not a HERITAGE.

Good Lord. Move on already, no one is impressed. Just look at the number of posts!

Wake up TMZ, Shaq Converted to Islam after 911.

@Joe: Yes, children born to a Jewish mother are born Jews. They don't have to be raised in an observant home to be Jews. Born a Jew, always a Jew. Definition of being born a Jew: Born to a halachically Jewish mother. Judaism is not a religion, it's truth. L'Shana Tova Shaq!

Hey NEO- Nazi, WTF
Would have loved it if you would have met Hitler and you could have told him your shpeel. Their would have not been a holocaust since Judaism is a religion. RIGHT?!

"The Jew has always been a people with definite racial characteristics and never a religion".

All Shaq is doing is trying to peeve off Mel Gibson!

Very nice and respectful! Now, if someone would only take a few minutes to teach him pronounciation! Joe, in Judaisim,you ARE born Jewish. It is more than just a religion, it is a way of life steeped deep in tradition, some of which has little to do with with the teachings of G-d. You're already on the internet, look it up so you don't have to make any more ignorant statements. = )

ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!!! Geez.... nobody to kvetch about today??? Couldn't y'all find out something else about Mel Gibson from like 40 years ago??? Here... I'll write one for ya. "Mel Gibson; wet his bed at age 3!!"

It seems to me that there is a lot of jealousy going around! Being Jewish is the best, and all others have to put it down..why? insecure???? Really.......Jewish mom Jewish child. It is the law. Get over it!!

comment number 4 uhh...... i think i too smell a neo nazi.
but that's kinda what this show is doing, and so is shaq, he's mimicking Amar'e about finding his HERITAGE.

That's another thing number four if being jewish isn't heritage why did hitler prosecute people that didn't practice judaism, and were only born to jewish families???
I"m just all over the place and very insulted.
