Paul Thompson is the author of The Terror Timeline: Year by Year, Day by Day, Minute by Minute: A Comprehensive Chronicle of the Road to 9/11 — and America's Response , a compilation of over 5,000 reports and articles concerning the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Paul Thompson was born in California. He now spends time there and in New Zealand. He is a freelance researcher and has worked as an environmental activist to protect the Borneo rainforest.

He compiled The Terror Timeline in conjunction with the Center for Cooperative Research. The timeline chronicles events leading up to the terrorist attacks and America's response. The project began in mid-2002 as a website entitled The Complete 9/11 Timeline.

The work has been highly praised by the "Jersey Girls". Kristen Breitweiser said, "If you want to know everything about 9/11, you must read this book ... Our intelligence agencies should be recruiting people like Paul Thompson, because he's brilliant".

Thompson has been featured in Esquire's December 2004 "Genius Issue", where he was described as "an authority on terrorism".


Thompson has theorized that their may have been two Ziad Jarrahs. He has also speculated that the Jarrah named by the FBI, who grew up in Lebanon, may have been murdered while another man with a similar appearance piloted the hijacked Flight 93. He has also criticized the Air's Force response on September 11 and has raised questions about George W. Bush's actions that day.
