My report is most likely going to focus on the Middle East. I am going to write mostly about the conflicts going on in the Middle East ( specifically countries like Israel and Iran) and how it will affect our future. I picked up this book the other day called The Epicenter and it talks a lot about this kind of thing. I will probably use this book as one of my primary sources. This is something i just recently became interested in so I am still struggling with the exact direction i want to take this paper. I will probably finish reading this book to learn more and also do research about the topic. There is A TON of information out there so it is really hard to narrow it and connect it all. I do not have an idea yet for primary research. I thought about doing a survey about people opinions on the events in the Middle East, but I don't know exactly how to ask them the question first.

Sounds great. The survey ideas will come as you begin to narrow your topic. Once you discover what your focus is, you can begin to decide what you're missing, and/or what popular opinions you need to "prove" exist.
