Did you know that Pearl's wife isn't Jewish?  Her paternal grandmother was Jewish but her paternal grandfather was a Christian.  I think they raised her father as a Catholic.  Her mother was of mixed Afro-Cuban and Chinese background.  She was raised Catholic but became a Buddhist.

Look up Pearl's father, Judea.  He's now giving some funding to various organizations including one of Muslim journalists.  He probably thinks they're moderate.

"Akbar Ahmed, a leading Islamic scholar born in Pakistan, joined Judea Pearl in cities all over the US, England and Canada to lead public dialogues about the divisions between Muslims and the West and between Jews and Muslims. Their discussions ranged from policy issues to theological perceptions to truth, lies and deepest fears. This personal yet public dialogue continues to carve a path for mutual understanding between the two communities.'
