There are a few different interpretations about why Iago hates Othello so much he is intent on destroying him. The most obvious is explained in the very first scene, where Iago is talking to Roderigo and expresses his anger at how Othello gave the position of lieutenant to Cassio and not Iago which he believes is unjust, since Cassio only knows "bookish theoric."
However later in the play one of Iago's soliloquies explains his (likely paranoid) suspicions that Othello had "bedded Emilia," his wife. There are also theories that Iago is actually in love with Othello so is jealous and hates him for marrying Desdemona, but I would think that the first interpretation would be your best bet.
Iago says he has heard that Othello has slept with his wife and is prepared to believe it.

If you're referring to Iago, then he was in Othello.
Iago is a major character in Shakespeare's play Othello.
Desdemona goes to Lago for advice about what to do about Othello's accusations. This is when Othello asks Emilia to go and find Desdemona while accusing her of harlotry.
Iago (not Lago!) says in the play 'Othello' "I am not what I am". This is insinuating that he is acting and hiding the person who he really is. He is pretending to be someone he is not.

Iago's plan in Shakespeare's "Othello" was to manipulate Othello into believing that his wife, Desdemona, was unfaithful in order to seek revenge on Othello for promoting Cassio over him. He wanted to destroy Othello's happiness and reputation.
Rodrigo is stabbed by cassio and killed. Bianca does not die.
Othello could have avoided all the pain Iago's lies caused him by simply believeing in the love Desdemona had for him. If Othello were to have been less insecure and jealous than Iago would not have been able to trick him.
no they are just trying to get othello jealous and get him away from Desdemona.
Othello was a play about a jealous husband that did not trust his wife so he killed her.
Othello's hamartia would either be his misplaced trust upon Iago or his magnified sense of jealousy.
