Final answer:

None of the above statements are true based on the events of Othello.

Step-by-step explanation:

None of the above is NOT true based on the events of Othello.

In the play, Iago does not believe that Othello will be a good and true husband to Desdemona. In fact, Iago manipulates Othello's trust in him to create doubts about Desdemona's faithfulness.

While Iago suspects that Othello has slept with Emilia, this belief is not explicitly stated in the play.

Although Iago manipulates and deceives others throughout the play, there is no indication that he wants to sleep with Desdemona.
