well, mant things are happening, so many it's not clear to me what
you're trying to do...
BUT, considering your for statement, since you are poping elements out
of list you are shortening it, so you are only getting as far as
element '5'
If what you want is a reversed copy, you could just append list1
elements to list2, and use the reverse function such as
>>> ...
>>> for i in list1:
... list2.append(i)
...
>>> list2.reverse()
>>> list1
['1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9']
>>> list2
['9', '8', '7', '6', '5', '4', '3', '2', '1']
