I'm not sure they are insane, just doing things for reasons not yet
explained.  When they were walking up to the mountain for radio
signal, Goodwin corrected Ana Lucia when she wondered aloud why the
others were trying to hurt them.  Goodwin seems to imply that they
have some other motivation.  He goes on to imply that the first attack
was to eliminate the strong ones, and that the second one was to get a
list of the "good people".

I somewhat agree.  I think that the others may think they are saving
the good people and that perhaps the motivations for the two attacks
were different.

Could be.  It also seemed smaller in size, and what was up with the
contents of that trunk?  A glass eye (perhaps from the black rock
pirates?), a bible, and a radio?  Perhaps there are different stations
with different purposes, but why?  To balance each other out?  Is one
a yin for the other's yang?  Are there multiple stations on the island
all there to balance each other out?  Some grand experiment of good vs
evil?

There is also another potential force for faith joining the show in
the faith vs science conflict between Locke and Jack.  Eko mentions at
the start of the episode that he will pray for both Bernard's wife,
and for rescue planes.  Eko is also the one to hold the Bible
thoughtfully when it's retrieved from the trunk.  I have a feeling he
will be playing a more religious role as we move forward.
