Examples of ied in a Sentence

   He said, ‘Hey, we're starting this new TV show that you'd be the perfect host for about surviving disaster situations – what do you think?’ all of a sudden – like clockwork, there's a boom that went off in the background and he's like, 'What the hell is that?'

5. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter:

That is why we are now expediting delivery of essential equipment and material, like anti-tank capabilities and counter-IED equipment, to the Iraqi security forces -- including Kurdish and Sunni tribal forces.
