Davis later said his plan was to be smuggled into Syria so he could join the Islamic State group as a recruiter and an English teacher.

Davis and his lawyer insisted he never meant harm, particularly to Americans.

I guess I am not understanding why this guy thought that being a recruiter for a terrorist organization was "not doing any harm".

These Westerners that buy into the IS propaganda are extremely broken and fantasy-oriented individuals. Chances are he really doesn't understand anything about the consequences of his actions. I'm not defending him, but at the same time I refuse to demonize the poor schmuck.

You are correct. It was not my intention to demonize him, just point out the duplicity of his beliefs.

I pay taxes to bomb brown people in Syria too, I don' t mean to do any harm either.
