Also note that the view you outlined is often concerned with the question of helping others. When it comes to not harming others, many people would agree with the declaration of human rights that inflicting suffering is equally bad regardless of one's geographical or emotional proximity to the victims. Personal vegetarianism is an instance of not harming.
I disagree with cosmopolitanism when it comes to "not harming" as well. I think needlessly inflicting suffering on human beings is always really bad, but it is worse if, say, you do it to your own children rather than to a random stranger's.
