It will only damage the motor if you connect it reverse polarity. OR if you disconnected the battery with the engine still running. Time for a new vehicle! ..

Sounds like you have a loose or corroded battery connection. That's the typical symptom of a bad connection, when you try to crank and everything goes dead. Clean and tighten up the battery terminals and all the ground wires. Also, check and tighten the wires on the starter.
If its an after market alarm ,disconnect it from the van.You can buy a new different alarm later that will come with the control buttons and instructions.
Jumpstarting cars with electronic ignition is not a good idea. Your car is also fitted with an immobilizer, hence the alarm going off. Get someone to drive you to a place that sells suitable batteries, and fit the new one. You should be fine.
