One of the strongest characteristics of Othello is his blind faith in the human race. This quality is one of the first to come to mind when one assesses a man as complex in nature as Othello. Othello not only puts his trust in his wife but also in Iago. Speaking of iago, he say that he is a man of trust and honesty and " to his conveyance I assign my wife" (1.3.286). Othello’s absence of any jealousy later makes his later breakdown more striking and poignant. It is Othello’s free and trusting nature that makes him such easy prey for iago. Not that this would be easy for anyone to catch.
