To determine the best statement that details the similarities between the examples of genocide in the lesson, we need to compare the given options.
The first and second statements are identical, so we can rule out one of them. Both statements mention the careful management and limitation of information by a government, but they do not explicitly talk about inciting hatred or the absence of international intervention.
The third statement states that all three genocides were organized and carried out by a government after inciting the hatred of their population. This statement directly addresses the involvement of the government in inciting hatred and organizing the genocides. It does not mention the management and limitation of information, or international intervention, which could be seen as differences rather than similarities.
Therefore, the best statement that details the similarities between the examples of genocide is:
"All three genocides were organized and carried out by a government after inciting the hatred of their population."
