Now the debate is going on over years what Silverstein meant with 'pull it'. Does 'it' refer to the building, or the task (of the firefighters)? Anyway, I don't want to start this debate again, but I noticed some interesting, or to say bizarre, curious thing. There are two DVD-documentaries on German language including the 'Pull it' quote. Of course it is interesting how they translated it, because there is no 'neutral' translation, if you want to say so. Translate it, as if 'it' refers to building, then you have the conspiracy theory. Translate it, as if 'it' refers to the task of the firefighters, and then you have the official fire induced collapse theory. Or this is what I thought. First, we have the 9/11 conspiracy movie "Siedepunkt 9/11" ("9-11 - The greatest lie ever sold") by Anthony Hilder, which I consider to be the worst 9/11 movie existing. So I wasn't very surprised that in the German version they got the translation (from the maker's point of view) completely wrong. Silverstein's quote is a main point of the movie, almost ten times repeated. And in the German version 'it' is translated as referring to task. So one of the main points of this conspiracy movie (in German language) is that they made the decision to terminate the task of firefighters, because they had such a terrible lost. What a conspiracy!   (Source) But it get's better. The source of the quote is the documentary "America Rebuilds". Here's a picture of the official German DVD-Release, it's called "Ground Zero - Das Jahr danach" (The year after):  (Source) And you know what comes, they translated it as if 'it' refers to demolishing the building. So you watch the official "America rebuilds" release, where the quote is coming from, then you will be left without any doubt that they demolished the building. And if you watch the conspiracy movie, you have a hard time to find the conspiracy in that often repeated quote. How bizarre! Somebody should tell them  ever thought of changing the sides?
