Getting a shoe-in for a job in Qatar

This may sound unusual, but I don't specialise in any particular field, but I want to aim for a job that would allow me the greatest chance of working in Qatar. Think of it as trying to get a job that you enjoy - I enjoy experiencing new cultures and customs, and I do my best work under pressure.

My parents have been less than supportive about my work prospects (basicly, they expect/demand that I live on welfare for the rest of my life, and in the demanding part they've been quite successful, but not through anything I've done - but that's a story for another time). Obviously that's no way to look at life. My most likely industry for landing a job would be I.T, followed by social welfare, but as for I.T, my official qualifications don't match my abilities - basicly, I'm adept at anything apart from networking. Obviously, for starters, I'm going to need some qualifications that match this.

What professions are most likely to land me a job in the Gulf/Middle East? I imagine with the perceived danger in the region, employers are probably more willing to send people there than working in-country. Why Qatar? After 9/11, I asked myself "just who are Muslims, and was America attacked?". I sought answers to my questions, and was amazed at the beliefs contained in Islam, and that the Isreal/Palestinian conflict isn't as one-sided as the media might have us believe. To people who don't understand the situation, I try and put it like this:

Imagine your grandmother has lived in her house all her life, and suddenly a bunch of homeless people come along, and say "ok, we're living here now". They may have had some terrible experiences, but it still doesn't make the situation completely "right".

Obviously, I don't have a grasp of the situation as well as some of the people on this boards, but IMO, it's better than a lot of naive people I've run into, who range from saying "why can't they just stop fighting over there?" to condemning the middle east as a whole, to "just drop a nuke on the whole place, problem solved".

I haven't been overseas, as yet, but I intend to. I was meant to go to Eqypt 2 1/2 years ago, but my parents pretty much put a stop to that (I don't live with them, but they basicly put me in a situation where my ticket - $3,000 is a lot of money for a 20 y/o - would be worthless, I know, this sounds odd, but again, it's a story for another day, or if you want an explanation, PM me.). In Sydney, for some reason, I feel "at home" in suburbs where storefronts have signs exclusively in Arabic, and hijab is commonplace. Don't ask me why. I also hate pork and alcohol, again, no idea why. Was I born to be a Muslim? who knows, but I'm guessing that if I went to my local mosque, I wouldn't exactly get an unbiased opinion...

anyway, which jobs would give me the biggest chance of landing a position in Qatar, or the middle east, for that matter? I'm in Australia, and I've found myself to be tolerant and interested in other cultures and customs, even if I find them completely strange or downright odd. I'm also not one to openly object to something that doesn't "agree" with my own belief system - I can imagine quite a few people I know who wouldn't last 5 seconds in Saudi or North Korea...
