The document is a persuasive letter from a member of the Council of Cyprus to other members. It recommends removing General Othello from his post due to recent events caused by Lieutenant Iago. Iago is believed to have corrupted other military members and caused Othello to kill his wife Desdemona out of jealousy and anger by planting lies in his head, after which Othello killed himself. The letter advises blaming Iago for all that happened and punishing him for his selfishness, greed, and misuse of trust.

Persuasive Writing
,Members of the Council
As all of you should know, the Nation of Cyprus has recently had ongoing battles
with the Turks. Assigned to us as a means of help was the brave and loyal General
Othello who came to be of great help. However due to the recent defeat of the Turks
and previous events throughout Cyprus we took it in to our responsibility of removing
General Othello from his post. In Replacement we felt it more than necessary to
.appoint Lieutenant Cassio as the head of governing Cyprus
The reason for our actions has to do with previous events throughout Cyprus. We
have reason to believe that are once thought loyal and trustworthy Lieutenant Iago has
caused corruption among members of our military, and family. We believe Lieutenant
Iago with his selfish/corrupt thoughts, and his mastery in speech placed thoughts into
the head of General Othello about his wife Desdemona. This causing General Othello
to grow with anger and hatred, in which he used to kill his wife Desdemona. Once
realizing all he was told was a lie General Othello could no longer bear the pain of his
.own being, and slayed himself among the body of his love Desdemona
On behalf of the Nation of Cyprus I would advise that Lieutenant Iago is to be blamed
for all that has happened. Lieutenant Iago has misused the trust of his colleagues
including General Othello for the benefit of his own selfishness. I believe a man of
.such ignorance should be punished for his greed, and misuse of trust
