Kissinger on Iraq:

Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who advised Bush on the Iraq war, said military victory is no longer possible and joined calls for the U.S. government to seek help from Iraq's regional neighbors-- including Iran.

''If you mean, by 'military victory,' an Iraqi government that can be established and whose writ runs across the whole country, that gets the civil war under control and sectarian violence under control in a time period that the political processes of the democracies will support, I don't believe that is possible,'' he said on the BBC's Sunday AM program.

In Sunday's worst attack outside Hillah, a roadside bomb and two car bombs exploded one after another near a bus station in Mashtal, a mostly Shiite area of southeastern Baghdad, killing 11 civilians and wounding 51, police said.

''Innocent people were killed. Where is the government?'' one Iraqi woman shouted in response to the bombing. ''Women and children were killed. God is great, God is great.''
