The 1979 L-f-P (withdrawal from the whole of Sinai) yielded a peace treaty with Egypt, which still conducts official anti-Jewish/Israel hate-education, facilitates Palestinian terrorism, incites against Israel at the UN and prepares its military to overwhelm Israel.
It was ignited when Israel gave hope to the PLO, snatching Palestinian terrorists from oblivion in terrorist camps in Iraq, Yemen, Sudan, Lebanon, Syria and Tunisia, providing them with land and guns, tolerating hate-education and the manufacturing and smuggling of explosives and weaponry.

 Specter of Lebanon Haunts Iraq Occupation Plans - Global Policy Forum - UN Security Council
Left behind were a Lebanese army crippled by factional loyalties and desertions, a moribund peace treaty between Lebanon and Israel, and rising resistance against Israeli troops in southern Lebanon by the same Shia population that had greeted them with such enthusiasm less than two years before.
Indeed, many of the people who applauded Israel's invasion of Lebanon in June 1982 and deplored the Reagan administration's decision to withdraw U.S. peacekeepers after a series of deadly terrorist attacks are now among the most ardent hawks, and for many of the same reasons.
And, as the hawks never tire of repeating, the U.S. forces are likely to be welcomed with flowers and celebrations by ethnic, political, and religious minorities that have suffered enormously under Saddam Hussein--just like the Israelis were received by the Shiites in southern Lebanon 21 years ago.

 Madrid Conference of 1991 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Israeli-Jordan negotiations eventually led to a peace treaty signed in 1994, while the Israeli-Syrian ones led to several series of negotiations, which came quite close on some reports, but did not result in a peace treaty.

The Palestinian team, due to Israeli objections, was not directly from the PLO, was initially instead formally a part of a joint Palestinian-Jordanian delegation, and was represented by Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza like Faisal Husseini, Hanan Ashrawi and Haidar Abdel-Shafi, who were however in constant communication with the PLO leadership in Tunis.
