Iago hated Cassio because he was promoted to lieutenant instead of Iago. This was his motive for getting him dismissed, for persuading Othello to hate him, and for trying to kill him. Iago was using Roderigo as a source of money, but Roderigo was beginning to realize that he was Iago's dupe, and was becoming dangerous to Iago--hence he had to be killed.

This is said by Iago in Act III Scene III. This is said by Iago in Act III Scene III.

Iago hated Cassio because he was promoted to lieutenant instead of Iago. This was his motive for getting him dismissed, for persuading Othello to hate him, and for trying to kill him. Iago was using Roderigo as a source of money, but Roderigo was beginning to realize that he was Iago's dupe, and was becoming dangerous to Iago--hence he had to be killed.
No. Othello did not kill Iago. He killed Desdemona (he thought he did justice). Then, the truth came out. Othello charged at Iago but was stopped by others at that scene. Then Iago ran away, and Othello killed himself; died upon a kiss on Desdemona.
By the end of Act 3, Scene 3 of Shakespeare's "Othello," Iago has successfully planted doubts about Desdemona's loyalty in Othello's mind by manipulating his thoughts and emotions. He has sown the seeds of suspicion and jealousy, setting the stage for Othello's downfall.
One paradox in Act 2, Scene 1 of Othello is when Iago says, "I am not what I am." This statement is paradoxical because Iago is known to be deceitful and manipulative, so his claim that he is not what he appears to be creates a sense of irony and doublespeak.
