Over the past 15 years many highly respected academics and experts have come forward to challenge the official narrative on the collapse of the WTC towers forwarded by the U.S. government. The official government position holds that the collapse of all three towers was due to intense heat inside of the buildings.
But a new forensic investigation into the collapse of the three World Trade Center towers on 9/11, published in Europhysics News a highly respected European physics magazine claims that the evidence points overwhelmingly to the conclusion that all three buildings were destroyed by controlled demolition.
While many in the mainstream have attempted to label anyone questioning the official narrative as a tin foil hat conspiracy theorist, many highly respected experts have come forward to lampoon the idea that the buildings collapsed due to the intense heat and fires following two terrorist-directed plane crashes.
Given the far-reaching implications, it is morally imperative that this hypothesis be the subject of a truly scientific and impartial investigation by responsible authorities, the four physicists conclude in the damning report.
The new study is the work of Steven Jones, former full professor of physics at Brigham Young University, Robert Korol, a professor emeritus of civil engineering at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada, Anthony Szamboti, a mechanical design engineer with over 25 years of structural design experience in the aerospace and communications industries and Ted Walter, the director of strategy and development for Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, a nonprofit organization that today represents more than 2,500 architects and engineers.
The comprehensive study in Europhysics News directly challenges the official narrative and lends to a growing body of evidence that seriously questions the veracity of the government narrative.
In 2002, the National Institute of Standards and Technology remarked that the case was exceptionally bizarre. There were no other known cases of total structural collapses in high-rise buildings caused by fires and so it is deeply unusual that it should have happened three times in the space of one day, noted NIST.
Perhaps most damning of all, the experts claimed that after a thorough forensic analysis of video footage of the buildings collapse, it revealed signs of a controlled implosion. Additionally, Jones has co-authored a number of papers documenting evidence of unreacted nano-thermitic material in the WTC dust.
The authors of the study note that the buildings fell with such speed and symmetry that they there was no other feasible explanation for the sudden collapse at free-fall speeds directly refuting studies that attempted to debunk the idea that the building fell without resistance. These respected experts new forensic analysis only adds to the growing movement of people calling for a new and impartial investigation into the collapse of the World Trade Center.

I will believe they "collapsed due to controlled demolition" when you prove they did.
From the linked article:
The case of WTC 7
The total collapse of WTC 7 at 5:20 PM on 9/11, shown in Fig. 2, is remarkable because it exemplified all the signature features of an implosion: The building dropped in absolute free fall for the first 2.25 seconds of its descent over a distance of 32 meters or eight stories [3].
Its transition from stasis to free fall was sudden, occurring in approximately one-half second. It fell symmetrically straight down. Its steel frame was almost entirely dismembered and deposited mostly inside the buildings footprint, while most of its concrete was pulverized into tiny particles. Finally, the collapse was rapid, occurring in less than seven seconds.
Given the nature of the collapse, any investigation adhering to the scientific method should have seriously considered the controlled demolition hypothesis, if not started with it. Instead, NIST (as well as the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which conducted a preliminary study prior to the NIST investigation) began with the predetermined conclusion that the collapse was caused by fires.
The case of the Twin Towers
Whereas NIST did attempt to analyze and model the collapse of WTC 7, it did not do so in the case of the Twin Towers. In NISTs own words, The focus of the investigation was on the sequence of events from the instant of aircraft impact to the initiation of collapse for each tower....this sequence is referred to as the probable collapse sequence, although it includes little analysis of the structural behaviour of the tower after the conditions for collapse initiation were reached and collapse became inevitable.[5]
Thus, the definitive report on the collapse of the Twin Towers contains no analysis of why the lower sections failed to arrest or even slow the descent of the upper sectionswhich NIST acknowledges came down essentially in free fall [5-6]nor does it explain the various other phenomena observed during the collapses. When a group of petitioners filed a formal Request for Correction asking NIST to perform such analysis, NIST replied that it was unable to provide a full explanation of the total collapse because the computer models [were] not able to converge on a solution.
Other evidence unexplained
The collapse mechanics discussed above are only a fraction of the available evidence indicating that the airplane impacts and ensuing fires did not cause the collapse of the Twin Towers. Videos show that the upper section of each tower disintegrated within the first four seconds of collapse. After that point, not a single video shows the upper sections that purportedly descended all the way to the ground before being crushed.
Videos and photographs also show numerous high-velocity bursts of debris being ejected from point-like sources (see Fig. 5). NIST refers to these as puffs of smoke but fails to properly analyze them [6]. NIST also provides no explanation for the midair pulverization of most of the towers concrete, the near-total dismemberment of their steel frames, or the ejection of those materials up to 150 meters in all directions.
NIST sidesteps the well-documented presence of molten metal throughout the debris field and asserts that the orange molten metal seen pouring out of WTC 2 for the seven minutes before its collapse was aluminum from the aircraft combined with organic materials (see Fig. 6) [6]. Yet experiments have shown that molten aluminum, even when mixed with organic materials, has a silvery appearance thus suggesting that the orange molten metal was instead emanating from a thermite reaction being used to weaken the structure [12].
Meanwhile, unreacted nano-thermitic material has since been discovered in multiple independent WTC dust samples [13].
Conclusion
It bears repeating that fires have never caused the total collapse of a steel-framed high-rise before or since 9/11. Did we witness an unprecedented event three separate times on September 11, 2001? The NIST reports, which attempted to support that unlikely conclusion, fail to persuade a growing number of architects, engineers, and scientists.
Instead, the evidence points overwhelmingly to the conclusion that all three buildings were destroyed by controlled demolition. Given the far-reaching implications, it is morally imperative that this hypothesis be the subject of a truly scientific and impartial investigation by responsible authorities.
15 Years Later, Physics Journal Concludes: All 3 WTC Towers Collapsed Due to Controlled Demolition [Boldness Added].
Also, from the linked article:
the evidence points overwhelmingly to the conclusion that all three buildings were destroyed by controlled demolition. [Boldness Added].
Those two statements are diametrically opposed to each other.
Definitions: 1. Conclude: Formally and finally settled. 2. Overwhelming: Very intense and hard to deal with. 3. Intense: Having or showing strong feelings or opinions; extremely earnest or serious.
How can it possibly be stated that something has been formally and finally settled and then state the same thing is very intense and hard to deal with, having or showing strong feelings or opinions; extremely earnest or serious .HOW?
Having or showing strong feelings or opinions is simply having or showing strong feelings or opinions. not and that is not conclusive .IS IT?
You make no sense in your presentations. But then this is no surprise, you never do.
Attaboy! What part of "overwhelming evidence" do you not comprehend?
I will believe they "collapsed due to controlled demolition" when you prove they did.
Oh please! you won't even consider the overwhelming evidence that is presented here and elsewhere.
You've shown once again on this topic you are intellectually dishonest.
The believers of the official 9/11 narrative are the real "kooks".

According to a New York Times/CBS News poll, only 16% of Americans think the government is telling the truth about 9/11 and the intelligence prior to the attacks:
"Do you think members of the Bush Administration are telling the truth, are mostly telling the truth but hiding something, or are they mostly lying?
