Life in Middle East

Hi there, thinking about a contract position in M.E
Just wondering about a few lifestyle questions.
What would the cost of living equate to for normal everyday items food/toiletries/etc.
Do most spouses go along and just live, or is it possible for them to gain employment?
Would they be able to work on my visa, or would they have to get sponsored on their own?
What would be the chance on getting on with an airline, as she has lots of expierence as a CSR with various airlines and computer reservation systems, and even aiport operations(gating etc.)??
Are airline ground staff in the ME require to speak the local language?
What about bringing our dog over, anyone any experience with that???
How are expats treated in the ME now post war??(By the way I'm not American)
Are things realively back to normal??
Thanks for taking the time to read this and respond.
