Apparently a surprising number of obscure 60's S.W.P. documents are online now.
Unfortunately, these PDFs are not keyword searchable with your browser.

Is there any way you know of to easily pull these up? I'd like to save the PDFs of as many as possible if not all. I started backing up EIRs as well from larouchepub. While the org holds his stuff in high regard there is always the possibility of stuff being scrubbed if it conflicts with their present view. Since LaRouche is still alive there is the distinct possibility the org could try and have them pull these writings down particularly because they have to do with his marxist background.

If you click my link to view that pdf using the Chrome browser, the upper-right corner has a download button option, so I'm pretty sure the docs at said marxist website can all be saved that way. I'm only a "geek lite" but I'm sure there are apps and / or Chrome or Firefox extensions that can capture any viewable PDF that has no download option... as there are with video viewed online, including youtube videos.
IT IS a good idea for any historian of the Left to DL this material, especially from Larouche sites, for exactly the reasons you stated. Sorry I can't be of more help.

There is some interesting stuff to be had here. I found this which has a letter to the editor discussing the NCLC and Operation Mop Up.

I am going to put some effort into saving every single EIR in the entire archive. I have a feeling that when LaRouche and Helga are gone that if the org continues to exist works will be scrubbed to create a boiled down version of LaRouche's general mission. Assuming they don't run out of money first.

The videos will be far harder to archive, there are many many of them, up until recently you could count on 4 hours of video material per week. They'll take considerable amounts of hard drive space and time just to go through them all due to the many sources.

My immediate goal is to back up the EIR archive. Then I'll move on from there to video material in hopes they don't scrub anything. I mean my internet connection is fast enough that if I can keep track I can probably do the entire EIR archive in a few days during my spare time.
