Actually this is typically gutless British. They made sure to remove every reference to "Allah", even though the subjects they are supposed to "satirizing" never stop sayin "Allah", especially in the RPG scene, the first thing terrorists are taught is to say "Allah akbar" as they fire their weapons. It is quite gutless to de-Islamicize this subject.
They try to make the Muslims look reluctant and the White guy is the real terrorist, this far removed from the reality of Muslim terrorism, and again quite a cowardly attempt to de-Islamicize terrorism.
Not only that it was mostly unfunny anyway, so at least in those terms, a typical British comedy. The deaths of the Muslims were funny, but they want us to laugh at the deaths of innocent civilians and police officers, who themselves are made to look incompetent and evil (apparently the Muslim terrorists are not incompetent and evil at al, just the Whites). The Muslims are made to look merely misguided and regretful, the sympathy is supposed to be for them, not the innocent people they killed, they even have the down-home accents to make them sound more British than British.

British comedy's the best in the world. Better stick to your safe, unsubtle, dumbed down American "comedy". Much easier for your brain.
