You are describing a genocide. It refers to violent crimes against a group with the intent to destroy the existence of the group. The Holocaust was a perfect example of the word and it was only when the German leaders were brought to trial in Nuremburg was this termed use. A pharse that goes along with it is 'crimes against humanity'.
