To me, Danzo was a villain who did bad things to benefit himself. He tried to have Hiruzen assasinated because he hated how Hiruzen was a peaceful Hokage; he betrayed Hanzo in order to sabotage peaceful negotiations with the Land of Rain; he ordered the Uchiha clan to be isolated and eliminated not only to stop their coup but he personally distrusted them; he stole Shisui's eye to gain the Mangekyo and stop him from preventing the clan's coup so Danzo can continue conspiring against them; he ruined Naruto and Sasuke's childhoods; he allowed Pain to destroy the village and kill most of the villagers so it would end Tsunade's reign; he wanted to manipulate the other nations so that they would benefit him if he became Hokage. To me, he may have wanted to do good for Konoha but he was too power hungry and corrupt to do anything short of murder and conspiracies.
