And then everyone died. The End.

"I kissed you before I killed you. Now, killing myself, I’m dying while I kiss you again." Othello V.ii.375
So I'm sort of confused. I know Desdemona, Roderigo, Emilia, and Othello are all dead. Cassio is seriously injured and Iago was stabbed too but is still alive. Huh. So where do they go from there? Cassio will most likely take over but I can't imagine he'd be too great in battle with only one leg. Everyone FINALLY figured out Iago is a lying scumbag, but he's not dead yet. So do they kill him later or let him rot in a jail cell? I guess it doesn't really matter though because he succeeded in what he was trying to do. I would definitely consider this story to be a tragedy, but what was the point? Most stories or plays have some kind of message but the only thing that happened in this play is that everyone is either dead or unhappy. Is this supposed to mean that even when people deceit you, you'll just end up dead. Maybe that's the point of a tragedy. Maybe the point is everyone has a tragic flaw that we will never really be able to overcome. I have to theories of what Othello's tragic flaw is. I believe it's either he loves Desdemona too much and he is therefore overprotective. Or is it his jealousy? In the beginning of the story he insists he's not a jealous man, but the rest of the story makes it kind of hard to believe that. So which one is it? Or is it both? I'm not really sure. All I do know is that this was one depressing story.
