British Prime Minister David Cameron is raising red flags about radical Islam's influence in Great Britain.

He's vowing to crack down on extremist schools and institutions that are radicalizing young people there.

"This ideology, this diseased view of the world, it's become an epidemic infecting minds from the mosques of Mogadishu to the bedrooms of Birmingham," the prime minister said.

His speech comes after numerous British youths fled the country to join ISIS terrorists fighting in Iraq and Syria.

"Girls, not much older than my eldest daughter, swapping loving family homes and straight-A futures for a life of servitude under ISIL, in a land of violence and oppression. Boys, boys who could do anything they want to in Britain, who've benefited from all this country stands for, instead ending up in the desert wielding a knife," he explained.

Cameron contends that's happening because some children are being indoctrinated several hours per day in Islamic madrassas, operating in Britain.

"In some madrassas, we've got children being taught that they shouldn't mix with people of other religions, being beaten, swallowing conspiracy theories about Jewish people," Cameron said.

"These children should be having their minds opened and their horizons broadened, not having their heads filled with poison and their hearts filled with hate," he continued.

Cameron said all religious schools will now be required to register for inspections, and the schools that are teaching intolerance will be "shut down."
