Wronged:
- Othello picked the less qualified Cassio as his lieutenant instead of Iago despite them fighting together "at Rhodes, at Cyprus, and on other grounds" and even though Venetian noblemen asked Othello to give the position to Iago instead: "Three great ones of the city (in personal suit to make me his lieutenant)" In the militant world Iago resides in, this is seen as a great betrayal, and his later actions can be seen as an act of revenge against Othello for this perceived betrayal.

However, despite his motivations, removing him of all accountability and solely referring to him as "unjustly wronged" can be seen as a stretch, as the methods he uses to destroy not only Othello, but Cassio and Desdemona (who did him no personal harm) go too far for them to simply be considered a simple act of revenge.
