I love this.   Where did I say "ongoing friction"?   the answer is:   
nowhere.   I said there was never a unity of the sort you insist upon.   Or insisted 
upon:   In this, your latest version you've moved from unity ("a more or less 
unified and potent sociocultural entity and political lobby")--let's play that 
again:   a unified ... political lobby)--to overlap.

One hardly needs an authoritative command of dates to note that 1961 isn't 
1964 or that 1968 isn't 1971.
