What's really clever of Cinder, is that now the citizens and politicians of the kingdoms now might be suspicious of all Huntsmen and Huntresses in general. That's something that can lead to civil unrest, bolster recruitment for the white Fang, Cinder' organization, Crime gangs like Roman and Juniors. Or even create new organizations whose goals opose the Huntsmen, Huntresses, and the Academies. All things that can potentially start a war possibly for a new, one world government that our antagonist will be high ranking members of.

-Defcon Deceiver Yup. The goal is to start a war and tear down those in power. "It's not about overpowering the enemy, it's about taking away what power they have"

Make the world distrust the hunters/huntresses (the main power the head officials rely on for support and backing under the notion of it being the only way to protect the people.) And while you're at it, take away even more trust from the already sketchy Atlas and it's synthetic military (meant to be morally correct in keeping peace while keeping living people off the battlefield). When the public no longer trusts or likes your armies and powerful reign over them, the top headmasters will be taken down and replaced. In the panic, some countries may not survive with the grimm attacks. Especially if it is finally revealed what the public has been blinded from in the outside world (maidens being one example) The public may lack in power, but make up for it in numbers.
