Now some people say that pull isn't a demolition term but it did used to be used as a demolition term about 50 years ago to pull a building over. Even if Silverstein wasn't referring to demolition it begs the question - what the bloody hell was he referring to?
And if that isn't what he was talking about, he wouldn't have said "and we watched the building collapse".
