But on this one I do.

That doesn't mean Guillaumeb is correct but the idea of "nominal" is flawed. I mean just look at how many factions there are. The more recidivist the sect, the more petty and nonsensical the blood feuds get. So who is "nominal?" Who decides?

The "chief rabbi" in Israel says I'm not Jewish. WTF? Who made this guy "chief rabbi?"
