In Shakespeare's "Othello," when Othello mentions that "the justice of it pleases," he refers to his sense of moral order and the need for accountability in response to betrayal and manipulation. He believes that justice is served by confronting those who have wronged him, particularly Iago, who has orchestrated his downfall. This statement reflects Othello's desire for retribution and his struggle to reconcile his love for Desdemona with the perceived betrayal he faces. Ultimately, it underscores the tragic themes of justice, revenge, and the consequences of misplaced trust.
Iago says, "Do it not with poison. Strangle her in her bed, even the bed she hath contaminated." Iago's advice is to kill her in her bed, not to use the bedsheet (you could strangle someone that way, but that's not what Iago says). Othello responds with "Good, good! The justice of it pleases! Very good!"
Technically, yes. Iago is taken to be tortured and imprisoned. But is justice really served? I don't think Shakespeare, the audience, or the characters would say so. After all of the tragedy and turmoil Iago causes, there is little that can be done to rectify the situation.
When he hears Emilia say that she stole the handkerchief and gave it to Iago.
Desdemona will appeal to Othello’s sense of justice and loyalty to convince him to restore Cassio's position. She will emphasize Cassio's worthiness and dedication, arguing that he is a valuable asset to Othello’s leadership. By expressing her belief in Cassio's abilities and her desire to see her friend reinstated, Desdemona hopes to persuade Othello to reconsider his decision and show mercy. Her unwavering support for Cassio reflects her commitment to both her husband and her friend.
Brabantio think Desdemona married Othello because he used drugs or some type of witchcraft spells or shall i say diabolical deceptions.

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.
Best to say whatever pleases her, pleases you. This will keep your tail out of the wringer in case of a poor outcome, or if she is " testing " you .

Emilia overhears Othello and Desdemona discussing Cassio. Desdemona is pleading on Cassio's behalf to Othello, hoping to persuade him to reinstate Cassio as his lieutenant. In the conversation, Desdemona is trying to help Cassio regain his position in Othello's esteem.
When he hears Emilia say that she stole the handkerchief and gave it to Iago.
Othello initially contemplates killing Desdemona by suffocating her in their bed, believing it to be a merciful act due to his perceived betrayal. Iago, however, manipulates Othello further by suggesting that he should use a more honorable method, such as stabbing her, to emphasize the severity of her infidelity. This conversation reflects Iago's role in deepening Othello's jealousy and rage while guiding his violent intentions.
Othello said that Iago is such a loyal friend to Cassio that Iago told about the fight in a way that looked better on Cassio. Even so, Othello fires Cassio and understands that Iago did what any friend would do.

He knows Othello is looking on and thinks that they are talking about Desdemona. The kinds of things Cassio is likely to say about Bianca drive Othello wild when they appear to be about Desdemona.
