I agree. However, I don't think Varys is a Targ. I think he just wants the Targs in power because he recognizes them as the only ones strong enough to hold the realm together, and Varys serves the realm above all else.
If that were truly the case he wouldve whisked ned awayout of the black cells. Allow the war for the north and stannis's uprising be fought by the most capable military commander in the game, allow him to win the throne for another baratheon once again. Allow time for another harvest before winter let the realm prosper for a few years then have aegon married to shireen after stannis died "peacefully" in his sleep.
The realm sheds less blood. The realm stays in tact and Aegon comes into a prosperous and peaceful kingdom.

no way Aegon can come to power in a prosperous, peaceful realm. There must be chaos and disunity or a ruler with no possible heirs for him to come to power. If peace, tranquility, unity, and prosperity were allowed to be established prior to Aegon and his army arriving, he would be thrown back into the sea by a united army. The 7 (or at least 6) Kingdoms would stand united against a common foe.
This way, they are all at war with each other and Aegon can come in as just another competing bidder. All he has to do is win a few great houses to his side (having one in the bag helps), and he tips the entire balance of power completely in his favor with just a handful of modest military victories.
Varys knows the Targs are what's best for the realm (there is simply no way that Cersei or her children, especially Joffrey, can be allowed to sit on the thrown for a lifetime), and chaos is the only environment in which Targs can regain power.
