From

Greater Manchester Police sorry for 'Muslim terrorist' mock blast - BBC News

Police who staged a mock attack featuring a bomber shouting "Allahu Akbar" have been forced to apologise for racial stereotyping.
Manchester peace activist Dr Erinma Bell criticised the use of a "Muslim terrorist".
But as

"The scenario for this exercise is based on an attack by an extremist Daesh-style organisation and the scenario writers have centred the circumstances around previous similar attacks of this nature, mirroring details of past events to make the situation as real life as possible for all of those involved.
Perhaps Dr Bell thinks they may have a Jewish or Christian division in ISIS, one wonders what her response would be if she ever gets caught up in the situation for real

Why do these do gooders not simply shut up and let people get on with their jobs.
