You may be looking for the novel.

Genocide was the destruction or attempted destruction of either an entire species or specific group of people. It can be contrasted with murder, which involved the killing of individuals rather than entire populations.

The Doctor seemed to be vehemently opposed to genocide; his tenth incarnation claimed that, if one looked up the word "genocide" in a dictionary, they would see a picture of him with the caption "over my dead body" (TV: The Doctor's Daughter), while the eleventh insisted that genocide was never a solution, even in a seemingly endless war like that between the Sontarans and the Rutans. (GAME: The Gunpowder Plot) However, he himself resorted to it, intentionally or otherwise, on several occasions.
