The Stone of Destiny, or Jacob's Pillow, is a central artifact in British coronations, currently housed under the coronation chair of King Charles III.

The discussion traces the strategic planning for Middle Eastern regime change back to Benjamin Netanyahu's 1979 terrorism conferences and the 1996 "Clean Break" report.
