Unless the fire department are in on it, I think they'd be considerably more confused by being told to demolish the building via explosives???

jim,
Good point,
Perhaps it was just one or two guys that really new what was going on.
They have a command guy who could have said "Get the firemen out of building 7"
And then when it was clear he could press a little red button.
Larry was probably just the triggerman or gave the orders to that one guy.
I red some stuff about this.
yeah good point Thanks for being open minded

If they've had a great loss of life, how would causing the building to collapse via explosives help that? ...

In my experience, when you take an idea that is a little far fetched, and to support it, you have to add another idea that is also far fetched, and support that by another far fetched idea...you might want to have a rethink of your original assumptions.
In this example we have:
1) The building being rigged with explosives without detection - far fetched
2) Larry Silverstein accidently giving away the conspiracy in blatant terms in a documentary - far fetched
3) Key members of the fire department being in on it all, probably many would have to be involved - far fetched
4) Larry Silverstein using a very obscure term that doesn't seem to be legitimate lingo for "demolition" - far fetched
5) Larry implying that pulling it would be the right thing to do to save lives - nonsensical
...and so on.
At this point we should stop, and have a rethink about our initial assumption - that Larry meant "demolish the building with explosives".edit on 20-3-2012 by humphreysjim because: (no reason given)

That Larry was referring to bringing the building down with explosives.

hi Dave,
Well, to be honest isn't that like saying I know it all so why am I seeking information?
No, it's like asking "what is your point because I don't understand how that's relevent to anything"?
Are you serious'
Your signature makes a statement about 911 which is what this post is about.
You know like who did what and when. oh and where?
Your thread therefore is redundant.
Why ask questions of others about the subject when you already profess to know the answers.
That is unless your signature is there just for fun and you are really still interested in WHO did 911 where and When? Are you?

Who needs censors when you have sheep dogs, wired-in sheep and paid-for sheep to herd the rest? Ridicule, character assassination, disinfo (double think, double speak, multiple different truths) and fuzzy math does wonders.

Hi hump
I am not sure what you are saying doesn't make sense???
What I can find is that no firemen that I know would use the term. pull it
Now that's odd, since I spoke with TWO fire fighters who confirmed it means "get the fire fighters out of a dangerous area". It comes from a term back before they used radios, where the teams outside would give the fire hoses a good hard pull as a signal to the teams inside to clear out.
Granted, this may be more prevalent with older fire fighters who were around back when they didn't have radios yet...like the firefighter officers Silverstein talked to...but that's neither here nor there. I asked for someone to show references for why "pull it" mean CONTROLLED DEMOLITONS, and noone has been able to provide anything except reasons for why they want to believe that's what it means.
After all, I can post for example, an actual reference that shows "jarhead" is slang for a United States Marine. Would you like to see it?

I asked "so what" because I don't know what your point is by asking about Bill Clinton's cigar sex episode. Are you saying I shouldn't be quoting Clinton because his cigar sex episide doesn't make him someone I should be quoting? Are you saying his cigar sex issue caused a distraction that caused us to be asleep at the wheel and overlook what was brewing elsewhere? Are you saying he was behind it and he used the cigar sex issue to distract people from what HE was doing elsewhere? Plus, it ISN'T relevent to the topic of the thread, so I'm waiting to see what the connection is between Clinton's using a cigar as a sex toy and "pull it".
Actually I just reread that last sentence...I suppose there IS a connection, although probably not the one you're referring to...

Actualy it is a term used to demolish buildings. Loosly used it means to take out the supports. Originaly it means as as building's supports are taken out, an explosion inside the building is set off to burn the oxygen creating a vacuum that helps "pull" in debris. Where do I know this from...beat the heck out of me. I'll try to find a source for it.
Not actualy a source but pretty much what I'm saying
There isn't much info on this.
