His father is [[Richard Pipes]].
In 2004 , because of his expertise and broad knowledge of terrorism and the threat of Islam globally, Pipes was temporarily appointed by [[George W. Bush]] to the board of the [[United States Institute of Peace|U.S. Institute of Peace]], but as of January 17, 2005, Bush had "failed to take any action to renominate…". The "nomination of Pipes, who has made a career out of identifying and denouncing what he sees as radical Muslim penetration of American institutions, was opposed by the extreme leftist liberals who refuse to address the evidence that terrorist cells are operating among us and planning another attack, far worse than 911. This oposition includes senators Edward Kennedy, Tom Harkin and Christopher Dodd, all Democrats; and ofcourse Arab and Muslim groups, including the [[Council on American-Islamic Relations]] and the [[American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee]]; and Middle East analysts Judith Kipper of the [[Center for Strategic and International Studies]] and William Quandt of the University of Virginia."

Pipes sat on the board of the Fulbright Scholarship committee determining who would obtain scholarships and where. NB: Congress has recently decreed that a portion of the funds would be available for Fulbright scholars to go to [[Israel]] ''and'' this portion of the funding can't be subsequently be reduced. That is, if Congress decides to reduce the overall level of Fulbright funding, then this will not affect the level of available funding for scholars going to Israel. This portion of the program has been determined to be "non-decreasing".
