[edit] Summary
This letter was sent during the time period that President Nixon was embroiled in the Watergate scandal that eventually led to his resignation. Rabbi Greenwald, who had served the Nixon campaign in various capacities, privately met with more than 10 Jewish Congressmen and sought to convince them that, in light of the events in Israel at the time (this was in the wake of the Yom Kippur War), it was necessary for the United States to be diplomatically strong at that time. Therefore, he pleaded, this was a terrible time to be seeking to impeach the President of the United States. Then chairman of the Republican National Committee George H.W. Bush learned of these meetings and informed President Nixon, who promptly sent this letter of thanks to Rabbi Greenwald.
