>What is the black stone comprised of

there has never been any studies of it because it would require intentionally chipping off pieces of it and that would be considered sacrilege

>what does it signify

There's no single tradition on what it is supposed to be. The most common tradition though is that it dates back to the time of Adam, who included it in his first temple to God, which is believed to have been at the spot the Kaaba now stands. Other traditions say it used to be white but became darkened by the sins of man and other traditions say it fell from heaven. Others say Adam just found it and dedicated it to God.

The only reason the soviets won is the lend lease arrangement. Without America they would have eventually lost. Plus some lucky breaks & the weather. None of the above shows Russian strength. Photo kind of related
