This is a matter of debate among Shakespeare scholars. Iago gives numerous reasons for hating Othello, but ultimately refuses to answer when asked at the end:
Othello asks
Will you, I pray, demand that demi-devil
Why he hath thus ensnared my soul and body?
Iago replies:
Demand me nothing: what you know, you know:
From this time forth I never will speak word.
Please specify which comments you are referring to. Everyone all through the play calls Iago "Honest Iago" which is certainly ironic. If you want something more specific, you need to specify.
Iago stirs up trouble on the island by manipulating Othello into believing that his wife, Desdemona, is unfaithful to him with Cassio. He exploits Othello's insecurities and uses deception, such as planting the handkerchief as false evidence of infidelity. Iago's schemes create jealousy and mistrust, ultimately leading to tragic consequences and the unraveling of relationships among the characters. His actions disrupt the peace and harmony of the community, showcasing the destructive power of manipulation and betrayal.
Iago is, although he is more likely to get others to do bad things than to do them himself. He does murder Roderigo, after egging him on to kill Cassio. He also induces Othello to murder Desdemona.The villain in Othello is Iago as he twists Othello's mind and gets him to kill Desdemona, steals from Roderigo and kills him, kills Emilia, wounds Cassio and ruins his job.
Iago manipulates Cassio by exploiting his insecurities and orchestrating situations that provoke conflict. He strategically gets Cassio drunk, leading to a brawl that tarnishes Cassio’s reputation and fuels his defensiveness. By planting doubt and confusion, Iago intensifies Cassio's argumentative nature, making him react impulsively to Iago's provocations. Ultimately, Iago’s deceitful machinations push Cassio into a position where he feels he must defend himself, leading to further discord.
Roderigo wants to help Iago discredit Othello primarily out of his infatuation with Desdemona, Othello's wife. He believes that by undermining Othello, he can create an opportunity to win Desdemona's affection for himself. Roderigo is also manipulated by Iago, who exploits his desires and naivety, making him an unwitting accomplice in Iago's schemes against Othello. This misguided loyalty to Iago blinds Roderigo to the latter's true intentions.
Largely. Iago is the instigator, the person who is at the root of all the trouble in the play. He is one of the most evil of villains in drama.

President Jackson
Iago's plan is to make Cassio drunk and get him into a brawl that will ruin Cassio's reputation and cause him to lose his position. He urges Roderigo to provoke Cassio "to put our Cassio in some action/ that may offend the isle." As usual,Roderigo is duped by Iago's manipulative words and agrees to do this, even though all he ends up with is a sound beating from Cassio. Iago, however, succeeds in getting Cassio dismissed from his lieutenancy to Othello, which plays in toIago's master plan to ruin Othello.
