If memory serves me well, I believe at one time The King was in the Jordanian Special Forces.
He may have even been in Command of them as well.

Interesting for sure. Is it SOP to do that with the door at the end? I admit I don't know a safe or easy way to shoot over the car while it is moving... but that seemed like a problem waiting to happen.

Still did it better than I ever could.

Certainly a tough part of the world to govern! Similar background right next door: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Netanyahu

Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu is an Israeli politician serving as the 9th and current Prime Minister of Israel since 2009, previously holding the position from 1996 to 1999. Netanyahu also currently is a member of the Knesset and the Chairman of the Likud party. Netanyahu is the first Israeli Prime Minister born in Israel after the establishment of the state. Born in Tel Aviv to secular Jewish parents,[1][2] Netanyahu joined the Israel Defense Forces shortly after the Six-Day War in 1967, and became a team leader in the Sayeret Matkal special forces unit. Netanyahu took part in many missions, including Operation Inferno (1968), Operation Gift (1968) and Operation Isotope (1972), during which he was shot in the shoulder. Netanyahu fought on the front lines in the War of Attrition and the Yom Kippur War in 1973, taking part in special forces raids along the Suez Canal, and then leading a commando assault deep into Syrian territory
