Because most of the mideast is populated by Muslims, who are led by radicals who are determined to eliminate Israel, which is populated by Jews. Israel, on the other hand, is protected by the military and economic power of the United States. The Muslim countries, which are militarily inept, do not have the power to conquer Israel, and so they resort to terrorism to accomplish their goals. Because terrorism is sporadic and unpredictable, and aimed at civilians more often than at military targets, the region is unstable.
Additionally, for the last two years, the radical Muslim Brotherhood organization has been successful in overthrowing several stable governments, including Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, and Morocco, during the so-called "Arab Spring". They have replaced these stable governments with unstable and radical pseudo-governments which have themselves been beset by rebellions.

The Middle East, specifically the Levant region.
The Middle Eastern region, like every other, is socially constructed based on race, language and religion. The region, which by most accounts spans from Morocco to Iran, is called the Middle East as a reference to its geographic relationship to Europe and East Asia (not western, nor far eastern). The place is lumped into a single region because the majority shares an ethnicity (Arab), religion (Islam) and language (Arabic, though Iran speaks Persian).
Africa is not called the Middle East. Part of Africa is in the middle eastern region.
It depends on what "in" refers to. If the question is geographic, i.e. Is China part of the region called the Middle East, then No. China is part of the Far East or East Asia, which is a very different region. If the question is about involvement, i.e. Is China involved politically with the Middle East, then, Yes. China needs an incredible amount of energy to power its economy and much of that energy comes overland from the Middle East, from countries such as Iran and Iraq. Therefore, China has a strongly developed Middle East policy.
