The Terror Timeline had contained previously published reports that were subsequently retracted, including allegations against a Saudi man, Mohammed Al Amoudi, that he had funded, supported, or is associated with Osama bin Laden, Al Qaeda, and their terrorist activities.[6] The sources used for the book also incorrectly said that Al Amoudi is a defendant in a litigation in a case put forth by families of 9/11 victims.[6] These reports were based on published news reports that were later retracted but cited in first edition runs of the book before later being retracted by the news sources who made the allegations.[6] HarperCollins removed these references in reprints after January 2005.[6] Upon discovery of this Paul Thompson made a public apology and had the information removed from the Center for Cooperative Research page as well as future editions of the book.
