Imagine those deaths creating people hating US in 1 to 100 proportion in those countries. You would end up with thousands of people willing to become martyrs, not to mention people like you in US hating them back in equal proportion. Ample number of people willing to fill up the ranks.

US has printed lots of USD in the last 2 years yet Yen losing value against it means Bank of Japan has printed even more Yen I guess by keeping interest rate low? But their CPI index seems flat, so increased Yen in the Japanese market didn't seem to have caused much inflation. It might due to their consumer demand decreasing due to negative population growth.

Cheap Yen also should increase competitiveness of Japanese products in the international market as it would be cheaper to buy Japanese products with USD compared to a year ago.

The British government targeted the American civil rights leader Stokely Carmichael and sought to weaken the Black Power movement with covert disinformation campaigns, recently declassified documents have revealed.

The effort was the work of a secret unit known as the Information Research Department, based in London and part of the Foreign Office, which created and distributed literature from fake sources as part of a broader effort to destabilise cold war enemies.

Though focused primarily on the Soviet Union and China, leftwing liberation groups and leaders the UK saw as threats to its interests, the discoveries reveal the IRD from the late 1960s sought to counter more diverse targets too.
