No military response can end the Israel-Hamas conflict, peace experts say. Even if Israel wipes out Hamas, another group will likely take its place

• Israel appears to be preparing for a ground invasion of Gaza where it hopes to wipe out Hamas.
• But experts on peace and terrorism said a strictly militaristic approach is unlikely to create change.
• "It is extremely rare for a terror group to be wiped out with violence," one expert said.

Israel has declared a state of war and vowed to destroy Hamas after the Palestinian militant group executed a wave of unprecedented terror attacks throughout the country that killed more than 1,000.
