This version of Ishamael wants to convert Rand above all else, because simply killing him means the cycle continues. He gave the Horn to the Seanchan so that they would become an unstoppable conquering force and thus put Rand's friends in sufficient danger that either they would turn to the Shadow or he would, preferably both.
As diabolical plans go, that one meets the standard.
