What I could see happening would be Jordan bowing to the reality of the situation (And bearing in mind Jordan is one of the few Arab states that sorta gets along with Israel for realpolitik reasons) and working with Israel to maintain some sense of normality - if for no other reason that to keep some access to the med.

Though normality by the regions standards.

I think that the Israeli government would want to keep things calm in the west bank, gaza, and southern lebanon. Its cheaper, and preserves resources. However: And this is a biiiiig but here: If the PLO, or any of the other governmental or terrorist organisation gets froggy, I don't see the IDF holding *anything* back in putting the threat down. In the midst of WW3, they know they don't have the time nor resources to put up with a long slow insurgency operations. It would be cheaper, in the long run, to go in very heavy, very fast, and very violent to put a very permanent end to it.

After all, when all the other powers are busy nuking each others cities, they can't wring their hands and bemoan anything Israel does. If they even bother noticing.
