I'm guessing that Ironwood is a Well-Intentioned Extremist. He thinks that the current government is bound to fall eventually, so he's pushing it over in his own time so he's got all the pieces and organiation in place to replace it with something more acceptable to him.


 * Cinder is his agent in this, I think (although I'm still wondering if she has her own agenda into which she's suckered Ironwood to unknowingly support);


 * Penny is very obviously the prototype to replace the human and therefore potentially disloyal Hunters with a totally reliable and expendable fighting force;


 * I'm pretty sure that White Fang don't know it, but their extermination is part of his game plan.
