Othello get very paraniod as Iago gets his wife to steal it from Desdemno and plants the Hankerchief on an unsuspecting inocent Cassio. Iago then tells Othello that Cassio must be sleeping with Desdemona, Othello refuses these claims although he is insure and asks for "ocular proof" Iago then tells Othello that Cassio has got the Hankerchief.

Why do Othello trust lago?
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.

What do Iago and Roderigo hope to accomplish by shouting insulting remarks about Othello and Desdemona under Brabantio's window?
They want Desdemona's father, Brabantio, to come out and kill Othello, because they know that Desdemona and Othello are getting illegally wedded. Iago hates Othello and wants him dead because Cassio gave Othello a position in the military that Iago believed he deserved.

What is the role in the handkerchief in Othello?
It gives Othello the ocular "proof" that he's looking for from Iago ever since his jealousy is sparked. Othello gave it to Desdemona once they began seeing each other and he believes that if she ever lost it that she would no longer be devoted to him. He knocks it out of her hand during an argument, Emilia picks it up and gives it to her husband Iago. He then places it in Cassio's room and he gives it to Bianca who then throws it back at Cassio (saying that she doesn't want the trifles of another woman) while Othello is watching him (just as Iago wanted) and Othello takes this as meaning that Desdemona gave the hankerchief to Cassio, Cassio gave to Bianca, and Bianca gave it back because she didn't want a token that was given to him from another woman.

How does Shakespeare use Desdemona's handkerchief dramatically and symbolically?
Dramatically, the handkerchief is a MacGuffin; it is an object which keeps the plot going because of the pursuit of it. Iago gets possession of it then implants the suggestion in Othello's mind that Desdemona has given it away. Othello's pursuit of it becomes his pursuit of evidence to prove adultery. In the end it also is the object which unmasks Iago and brings about the horrible realization of the truth in Othello. The handkerchief symbolizes Othello and Desdemona's love and wedded bliss. He gave it to Desdemona as he gave her his love and asked her to be his wife. Later Iago makes him believe that she has given the handkerchief to Cassio, symbolizing her giving her love and her body sexually to Cassio, which should have been between her and Othello. Finally it is revealed that the handkerchief was stolen, symbolizing that Iago has stolen Othello's love for Desdemona and replaced it with hate, and has stolen their marital happiness from them.

What does iago tell Othello he heard cassio saying in his sleep?

Why does lago say wished to kill roderigo?
Roderigo was becoming aware of the fact that the huge sums of money he had given Iago to help seduce Desdemona had been going directly into Iago's retirement fund. When a conman cannot blow off the mark, either he runs or arranges for him to be killed. Actually Iago wanted Cassio to kill Roderigo but he didn't quite do the job so Iago has to finish it.
