Back on Christmas Day in 1950, some Scottish juvenile delinquents, also
known as "Nationalists", swiped the Stone of Scone from Westminster,
last seen heading for the Scottish border in the back of an old truck.
Scotland Yard was put promptly on the case, and swiftly returned the
treasured piece of loot, after it 'turned up' in the ruins of Arbroah
Abbey. A jolly good show, keep up the good work boys!
(In 1996 Queen Elizabeth gave the stone back to Scotland, for after
700 years the English royals were starting to suffer the pangs of a
guilty conscience, and the Westminster staff was tired of moving a 24
stone stone around every time they wished to clean up a stain on the
stane. No word yet as to whether the Scots intend to return the stone
to Jacob's descendents, or let the Irish worry about that.)

Which is an interesting piece of information pygthur understand a book
by Terry Pratchett.
Thank you, Douglas!

I haven't read the book by Terry Pratchett, but I'm glad to have thrown in
my two cents then. There's really quite a fascinating legend around the
Stone of Scone. It's said that whoever owns it controls the destiny of the
world, and it is odd that the focus of history in general seems to have
moved from the ancient world of Greece and Rome and the middle east to
Europe around the same time legend says the stone was taken to Ireland,
and since it was in the possession of the English, in 1296AD, the whole
world has been slowly getting "Anglicized". Even the Japanese dress
British and speak English. Perhaps if it remains with the Scots long
enough the whole world will start to live in thatched stone cottages,
speak Gaelic, and raise sheep.... Och, Lassie, ah feel lak havin' a wee
droppie and a haggis...

if you read David Icke, you will learn some interesting things.

this whole world is under the control of Queen Elizabeth II. She is the
head of the alien brotherhood which controls this planet by subterfuge.

they are a reptilian race and they shape shift.
