The dagger's easy - again, he can't document humanity if he doesn't exist. In the battle of dark vs. light, he's decidedly on the side of light. The dagger needed to make its way to Arya for humanity to continue to exist.
Now Jon...well that's simply machinations between men and admittedly, I don't have a great way to explain that away. When he said to Sam "he has to know" perhaps it was some some sort of statement as to how Jon would need to be motivated in the fights to come.
Tougher call for sure, just one that we can't really get a definitive answer on without (and there's a trend here) an inner monologue. He simply gives all the appearance of someone who is completely detached from humanity at this point and if that's the case, it explains 95% of his behavior and actions to this point.
