Let us praise... No, no more gibberish! Here you go!

My infix is somewhere in the Middle East,
My prefix annoy and make you muddy,
My suffix a line, peculiar at least.
And I, concealed, is what you see!

or

My prefix on the road, is not an island,
My infix is three dots on the left.
My suffix is to Anglo-Saxons, an island.
And I, and I, when would I come back?
