Best Answer

Iago's plan in Shakespeare's "Othello" was to manipulate Othello by planting seeds of jealousy and doubt about his wife Desdemona, ultimately leading to Othello's tragic downfall. Through deceit, lies, and manipulation, Iago is able to manipulate the characters around him to bring about chaos and tragedy.

Iago is extremely jealous of both Cassio and Othello. His plan is to make Othello believe that Desdimonia has committed adultery with Cassio. That way, Cassio will be fired from his high military status and Othello will loose the love of his life (Desdimonia, his wife.)

To discredit Othello by getting him to kill Desdemona, and in the process to get Cassio killed. It almost worked out for him too.
