A few wars have been conducted based on the claim that certain people are evil and must be killed.

Which people are considered evil depends on the people seeking to start/maintain the war. According to British and US Propaganda in World War I, for example, German troops - the "boche" - were represented as animals who raped the woman, killed the man and ate the children in the countries they conquered.

The idea of evil is a moral concept rather than a religious one. That is to say, even people who claim to have no religion at all nevertheless recognise the distinction between "good and evil", "right and wrong", etc.
