Paul Thompson

Paul Thompson is the pseudonym of a California/New Zealand freelance researcher and author of an overall great, albeit somewhat flawed, book called The Terror Timeline which is an essential part of any 9/11 researchers library, besides The 9/11 Commission Report, The 9/11 Investigations (ed. Steven Strasser w/ intro by Craig R. Whitney), 9/11: What Really Happened (Der Spiegel Magazine), and several others. The last time I checked, Thompson accepts the theories that there were two Ziad Jarrahs and that Flight 93 was shot down, despite conclusive evidence to the contrary (these are the only discredited theories that he accepts which I am aware of at this time). He also gives undue praise to conspiracist Michael C. Ruppert's bad 9/11 timeline. Thompson's vast website is excellent and brilliantly organized. For example, he divides his online version of the Complete 9/11 Timeline into the following subject areas (I've linked these sections to some of my blog posts):

======================
CCR is not archived on archive.org because it has a robots.txt query exclusion, so I'm still working on finding something I remembered: a CCR document about the invasion of Iraq that questioned the widely accepted belief that Saddam Hussein is evil, as well as some other shocking things along the lines of Saddam not being a war criminal.
