I believe his eventual goal is to purge all the benders out of republic city, and then use the cities resources and technology to start another global war. One that pits the Equalists "No benders allowed" technologically superior United Republic, against the other three (relatively underdeveloped) nations of the world. Of course it's an impractical plan, but he and his equalists see no other alternative. they believe destroying all bending is the only way to make a world where everyone is truly "equal" and noone persecuted at the hands of someone who abuses their talents.

But then along come Korra, and Amon becomes paranoid that she will become fully a fully realized avatar and ruin his plans for war. Thus begins the plot of the series.
