The Church of Scientology wants the "Global Obliteration of Psychiatry"
A fair use video excerpt from which the pictures below were apparently taken was originally posted on Vimeo (it was removed on May 26, 2009):

Scientology extremism: The "Global Obliteration of Psychiatry," featuring Church of Scientology leader David Miscavige.
Addendum Nov. 19, 2009: More evidence of extremism here: Youtube: Scientology Advocating Violence Against Psychiatry, IAS 2007 International Scientology News, Issue 35:
[...] At our IAS Anniversary celebration, I told you
psychs were about to believe in the Divine Wrath of
God. And, sure enough, they now know that wrath is swift
and certain.
Because in just the last eight weeks came 37,824 column inches of anti-psych press to "mess them up but good"and that's our 2006 campaign for the Global Obliteration of Psychiatry. An insider provided pictures of the Church of Scientology 2007 New Year's event: images of an exploding grenade are associated with the Church of Scientology's campaign for the "Global Obliteration of Psychiatry":

Evening Standard (London, Oct. 2006): "Tom's aliens target City's 'planetary rulers'" by David Cohen
On October 23, 2006, the Evening Standard of London
published an article titled
"Tom's aliens target City's 'planetary rulers'", in
which David
Miscavige
seems to promote the machine-gunning of psychiatrists:
I expect the evening to have something a spiritual
dimension after all, Scientology calls itself a
religion but what happens next is truly
eye-opening.
Up front, David Miscavige is dramatically - and somewhat bizarrely - attacking psychiatrists, his words backed by clips from a Scientology-produced DVD are broadcast on four giant high-definition TV screens and sensationally called: Psychiatry an industry of death." "A woman is safer in a park at midnight than on a psychiatrist's couch," booms Miscavige, backed by savage graphics of psychiatrists - or "psychs" as he calls them - being machine-gunned out of existence. Tom Cruise once publicly criticised a postnatally-depressed Brooke Shields for taking antidepressants, for which he later apologised, but I am now witnessing the raw dogma that lies behind his outburst. As Miscavige begins to crescendo "our next step is eradicating psychiatry from this planet, we will triumph!" the audience rise as one, wildly clapping and cheering. I look around, half expecting people to be rolling their eyes at this ridiculous, over-the-top message, but instead they're staring at the screens with a rapturous gaze, almost as if they are hypnotised. A few minutes later, Miscavige crescendos again, and, on cue, the audience rise to hail the chief. |
«"Psychiatry" and "psychiatrist"
are easily redefined to mean "an antisocial enemy of the
people." This takes the kill-crazy psychiatrist off the
preferred list of professions. ... The way to redefine a word is to get the new definition
repeated as often as possible. Thus it is necessary
to redefine medicine, psychiatry and psychology downward
and define Dianetics and Scientology upwards. This,
so far as words are concerned, is the public opinion
battle for belief in your definitions, and not those
of the opposition. A consistent, repeated effort is
the key to any success with this technique of propaganda.»

International Association of Scientologists event of 2004: "Go to guns!"
A
fair use/fair
dealing excerpt from one of the now famous
leaked Tom Cruise videos:
Get the Flash Player to see this video. Fran Andrews, Executive director, CCHR International: "Not only has Tom Cruise personally toured people through CCHR than anyone I have ever know or seen, but he has also gotten that he knows to do the same thing." Jan Eastgate, President, CCHR International: "Tom is more involved in CCHR than any other Scientologist that I have come across in my twenty-seven years." Tom Cruise: "Oh I'm going hard at those guys and their... reign. Those uh... psychiatrists, I just... I've had it, absolutely had it. It's disgusting to me." [...] Tom Cruise: "OK, you know what? Go to guns, I've just had it. I've absolutely had it." [...] Tom Cruise: "No mercy! None!" [...] On his web site, Mark Ebner says that "go to guns" is a "fighter pilot term," so of course I will assume Tom Cruise was using the expression as a metaphor. Now, consider the following statement from former scientologist Martin Ottman:
The Scientology management and its various entities
propagate that psychiatry is the "root of all evil."
Martin Ottman,
"Affidavit In Support Of A Citizen Complaint"
With the extreme irrational view of scientologists that psychiatrists are at the "root of all evils," and keeping in mind that Scientology's Code of Honor states that one should "never fear to hurt another in a just cause," let's hope no unhinged scientologist will interpret Tom Cruise's "go to guns!" literally. Michael L. Tilse's "False Purpose Rundown"
In 2003, Michael Leonard
Tilse shared his
account of
a Church of Scientology's event he attended, in which images
of violence toward psychiatrists were shown:
You see, [Mike Rinder]
accompanied this presentation with extremely EVIL INTENTIONED
images of "psychs" being hung,
being thrown in the toilet with excrement and of "psychs"
going down the sewer.
David Miscavige's pledge to "eradicate psychiatry"
Narconon Exposed,
"Is Narconon Valid? Scientology versus Medicine":
But Scientology's attacks on psychiatry go far
beyond mere rhetoric. At a 1995 conference of
Scientologists, it was announced by
David Miscavige,
the de facto leader of the Church of Scientology,
that it would "eradicate psychiatry" by the year
2000. [...]
Each year Scientology leaders inform their flock of
the success they have had in "crushing psychiatry",
through the Citizen's Commission in Human Rights [...]
