Mainline European Physics journal publishes paper critical of NIST 9/11 report [View all]

The European physics journal of the European Physical Society, EurophysicsNews, recently published an article, 15 YEARS LATER: ON THE PHYSICS OF HIGH-RISE BUILDING COLLAPSES, co-authored by several outspoken critics of the commonly accepted "official" explanation for the complete collapse on 9/11 of the 3 WTC towers 1, 2 & 7 [as was put forth by the official investigatory body, the USA's National Institute of Standards and Technology or NIST] . The authors purport to show in their paper why NIST's explanation that these three buildings collapsed in such complete and spectacular fashion due two aircraft impacts (one each in WTC1 and 2) and the resulting office fires does does not stand up to scientific scrutiny.


The EurophysicsNews article concludes that purely from a physics and engineering perspective the evidence available does point to explosive demolition as the only reasonable explanation for the complete destruction of these three WTC towers. NIST does admit that it never tested for explosive residues in the wreckage. The authors do not make any accusations or speculate as to who exactly might have been responsible for pre-placing the explosives or incendiaries they believe were necessary to bring down the buildings in the manner observed.
