Optimism and uncertainty mark feelings of immigrants

Optimism and uncertainty mark feelings of immigrants : "Al-Hindawy, who left five brothers in Iraq, said the needs in Iraq are not unlike those in the United States. 'I believe the most problems we face is because Iraqis are out of jobs,' he said, noting that in both countries, it's key to being able to take care of one's family.

'That's what we struggle with,' he said. 'They feel really hurt when they see all of the construction being done by people from out of the country, and they know they could do it cheaper themselves.'"
