-Another main connection expressed in the story is the will to get revenge on your enemies.Iago wanted revenge on Othello for giving the job Iago wanted to Cassio.Iago did this by lying on the relationship between Cassio and Desdemona;causing Othello to believe Desdemona was cheating on him.This situation relates to the modern day because many people still today get revenge on each other for the wrongs people have done to them.One main example of revenge in the modern day would be gang retaliation.
