Iago uses everyone in the play. It is the only way that he can relate to people. He uses Roderigo as a source of money. He uses Cassio to set up Desdemona. He uses Desdemona's kindness to give him an opportunity to use Othello, and he uses Othello in order to destroy both him and Desdemona. He then uses Roderigo to destroy Cassio. He uses his wife Emilia to get Desdemona's handkerchief.
Iago is a psychopath. He does not care about anyone except himself and he is extremely adept at manipulating others. He is so good at appearing to be whatever he wants to be that everyone is taken in and thinks he is an "honest fellow".
