Why does Iago continue to serve under Othello?
Despite his hatred and detestation towards Othello for promoting Cassio before himself, Iago continues to serve under Othello in order to bring Othello down by using and undertaking his cunning and devious measures to get Othello to betray his Desdemona by taking advantage of his phobia of Desdemona and Cassio together.
Is justice served at the end of the play Othello?
Partly. Cassio is justly restored to favour after being entrapped into a crime. Iago will be punished. These things are just and fair. But Desdemona is dead, who was absolutely innocent. Emilia, who unwittingly helped Iago but redeemed herself by revealing what she knew, died for courageously doing so. And Othello, who is as much a victim as they are, is dead also. The unfairness of these deaths cannot be made right by punishing Iago. Nothing can bring them back to life.
What personal characteristics of himself bring about Othello's own demise?
More than anything, his humility. Humility is a good quality, but Iago makes Othello's lack of pride work against him. When it comes to fighting in a battle or dealing with a load of hoodlums in the street, Othello is all confidence: he knows how to deal with those things and he knows he knows it. However, in matters of love, he is not so sure. He has reached middle age without really having to deal with women. His relationship with Desdemona starts off with him telling her stories of his life. He isn't trying to woo her, to pick her up or in any way get her to love him. But she does love him. Othello is amazed that she should fall for someone who is old, who is not of her class, who is a foreigner and has an unpopular skin colour. Why should this wonderful young woman pick him of all people? We can see through Desdemona's eyes past these superficial qualities to the qualities of the man within. Othello is competent, commanding and very human. His very humility makes him a good commander and leader. It also makes him doubt whether a woman like Desdemona could love someone like him, a doubt which Iago exploits and turns to the certainty that she must love someone who appears to be more deserving--someone like Cassio. In Othello more than any Shakespeare play we see the pointlessness of the "tragic flaw" type of analysis, which tries to make the plays into parables designed to convey trite bits of morality. The characteristic which leads to Othello's demise is a virtue, but as those compassionate and generous souls who have been conned by phoney charities know, even virtues can be exploited by the wicked. Both Othello and Desdemona are very good people, and yet their doom overtakes them anyway, and in part because they are so good. That's what makes it so heart-wrenching.
Is Iago in Othello greedy?
No. His conniving had small benefit to him. It is true that he was able to replace Cassio as Othello's lieutenant, but almost immediately thereafter he did his level best to bring Othello (and thus his newly won position) down. There was no benefit to Iago in doing so.
Does iago convince roderigo to kill Othello?
Cassio is still alive by the end ofOthello. This is the only area in which Iago fails in his scheme. It was intended by Iago that Cassio die and he uses Roderigo to try and accomplish this but Roderigo fails (though he severely wounds Cassio). The concept demonstrates that not everything can be coldly calculated. Life is extremely unpredictable.

What was Iago's plan?
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.

What was the date when Cyprus joined the EU?
For financial and political stability; Cyprus is a small country - the population is less than some English counties - and it has unstable neighbours; Turkey, Israel and Syria. Cyprus was invaded relatively recently (1973) and, understandably, Cypriots welcome the stability that being a member of the EU tends to bring. Cyprus has also benefited from EU grants for major road projects.
Why did Turkey invade Cyprus?
Cyprus had two ethnic groups, Greeks and Turks. As a condition to the independence of Cyprus from Britain in 1960; Greece, Turkey and Cyprus agreed to a power-sharing government in which the Minority Turks had less power in total, but slightly more power per person. Cyprus would be independent from Britain, Greece and Turkey. By 1974 the Turks and Greeks in Cyprus were no longer working together that well, and Greece was controlled by a military junta. Greece threatened to take complete control of Cyprus, and make it part of Greece, ignoring the views of the Turkish minority although at this point the Greek majority liked the idea.As a guarantor powers Turkey invaded Cyprus to bring peace, but because the Greeks still wanted to join Greece the Turkish in Cyprus created the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
