Absolutely Friction caused the demise of Columbia. Something the size of the shuttle, hitting the atmosphere at 17,000 Miles an hour, has TREMENDOUS kinetic energy. This energy, upon re-entry has to be Bled off somehow, this is done in the conversion of the compression of Air molecules (a gas), in to plasma (Superheated gas). As the Shuttle's Protective shield was damaged on take offand the Plasma found a weakness in the shield, and ate the immediate area, and ultimately, the shuttle broke up.
