The government is manipulating the Hutus to make sure they keep disputing and rioting against the Tutsis. By doing that, the government is making sure that the war doesn’t die down easily. If the government didn’t communicate the poisonous rhetoric to the people, the war could have possibly ended much earlier than expected.

In Source B we see that the Hutu extremists backed up their massacre and killing by saying that what they were doing was an order given to them. They said that they were told to kill all the Tutsis and this made it easier for them to do it, they were not the ones who had to decide what they had to do.
