Why is Mab trying to change Harry?
SerScot:
I am very curious to hear from Rashid after Harry’s expulsion from the White Council. Would he have been involved in the “emergency Senior Council” meeting? Or was that only The Merlin, Mai, Christos, and Martha Liberty? He had offered to get Harry “reinstated” after his recesitation from his coma. He told Harry at the Outer Gates to “if you want to help me keep doing what you are doing”. I’m very interested in what Rashid will have to say about all of this. Including what the “Stars and Stones” actually are.

Rashid was very busy at the Outer Gates, I'd say the crisis there hadn't passed. I don't think Rashid would have voted for Harry to be removed, I think he knows a lot more than he is letting on and as we saw in Summer Knight has his own tests for Harry.
Interesting don't you think the only Senior Council Members voting were ones i.e. the Merlin who actually ended up on the short end of a political clash with Harry. The others were at the battle for Chicago, and at least one of them was disturbed by the fact that Harry had his own loyal private army, even if they were only six inches tall give or take. They were effective against the flying squid things where these powerful senior wizards were not. I think that scared the hell out of them.
Conspiracy Theorist:
My theory on Rashid is that because of his advanced foresight he will sometimes vote against Harry’s apparent interests to secure in the long-term what is in Harry’s best interests.
He may have therefore voted with the Merlin’s Block to create a Starborn Wizard, but then surprised the Merlin by voting against Harry’s execution. His long term aim to end up with the Harry we know to challenge the Merlin.
He may have deliberately NOT attended the meeting on Harry’s expulsion so as to facilitate it,

All possible, but I think it was pretty clear that Rashid had his hands full at the Gates. Remember what Rashid told Harry in Turn Coat, that the time hadn't come yet for him tom challenge the Council, meaning not that he is discounting Harry's challenge at Molly's trial, but something bigger to come.. I hope Jim remembers too.. ::)

In the case of Aurora, she was infected and started a war between Summer and Winter, yeah, getting her killed pissed off her mother, but she knew it had to be done. What pissed her of is how it was done, the little folk using steel box cutters. He didn't make the trouble with the Red Court they have been trouble for a millennia, but he finished it.

He may not START the trouble, but he escalates it with his handling. He sees a mosquito on the wall - and hits it with a hammer. Leaving a big dent. Bianca stirs up trouble - and Harry burns the place down. Bull in a china shop moves. Harry's not a thrust of a rapier, he's a two handed strike with a claymore. It is not unnoticed... I believe at one point Marcone wants someone killed, and Harry wants the guy just stopped. And Marcone gives harry info. Harry says he does not intend to kill him - and Marcone replies he has seen what happens to those who oppose Harry, he will take his chances.
