The Globe and Mail highlights the role of a government-funded youth center in radicalizing the London terror bombers:

LEEDS — The transformation of four young British men into terrorists appears to have taken place at a government-funded storefront youth centre in Leeds that, according to youth workers, was a hub of radical Islamist activity.

The centre was sealed off and searched by police yesterday after three of its workers said in an interview on the street outside that at least two of the suicide bombers had been “very regular” visitors at all hours to the Hamara Youth Access Point, and a third had been seen there occasionally.

“It had become so radical and so hateful that I asked if I could stop working there,” said one of the workers, who along with two others described the storefront drop-in centre as a hub of radical Muslim politics and a hotbed of Islamic organizing, routinely hosting mysterious figures to speak about extremist politics.
