Man. No offense but your brain is wired totally different than most others.
How many are those "others". You mean the ones who say that things are what they say, no matter what.
What he's saying and what you're hearing are totally different that what others are hearing him say. Clearly, in the next video, you can hear the owner of the building say that a decision was made to "pull it", meaning to take it down, not evacuate it. Can you not hear that?
You mother language is English, right? It may then be easier for you to hear and understand what he is saying there: "Then I remember they gave me a call from the fire department commander, telling me that they were not sure they'd gonna be able to contain the fire, then he said 'you know, we face such terrible loss of life', 'the smartest decision to do is pull it', and they made that decision, to pull, and then we watched the building collapse."
Now, as the native English speaker that you are (you are a native speaker, right?) you know the meaning of "
pull" and what it means "to pull it": to abandon. As a native English speaker (because you are so, right?), you now that in a turn of phrase with a simple verb plus the "it", the "it" merely refers to the situation, not an object.
Because the building is in your own mind all the time, whatever Mr. Silverstein is saying you take as referring to the building and, logically, you "pull" your own sense of what he is actually saying.
He is referring to "the firemen in the building on fire". He quotes the commander talking about the danger continuing there represented for the men working inside, then he speaks about the final decision to "pull it". But that, for you, means "pull it down". Because they had been working to extinguish a fire for hours, then decide to spend a few minutes to pull it down. Unless you decide that WTC7 too had built-in explosives in its structure, and they only had to "trigger it".
"Pull", "pull it", "pull it down". When you are obsessed with a result, everything makes sense with the result you want to obtain, and you keep feeding that belief, forgetting what you have missed, and what you have blundered in your "demonstration".
But, hey, I am not opposing to your own beliefs and your own sense of right: nobody who merely discusses and reasons facts can oppose people who believe they are right, in whatever way they please to turn their facts to continue to appear that they are right.
