I guess it depends on where you are in the Middle East.

My experience is in Iraq.  In this region are lots of really poor
providers reselling highly unreliable, congested, and jitter-prone
bandwidth.  There are a few that are not.

In major cities in Iraq TigrisNet resells Intelsat bandwidth via a
metro 802.11a network.  Elsewhere in Iraq (and likely the whole Middle
East) you can buy service from Intelsat directly.  Its not cheap, but
it works very well.
