I've always been a bit curious about why Arafat did not even give a counter offer at Camp David. I think that resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was made significantly harder because of that, as it basically enshrined the idea that a Palestinian peace partner did not exist in Israeli politics, which quickly became an agreed upon concept among all parties from the centre left to the far right.

If there was to be an agreement to the Camp David offer, for whatever reason, on the part of the Palestinians, would implementation have worked out?

There seemed to be an idea that Barak was giving up way more than he had any right to, and the risk of the government falling apart as a result was possible. If Sharon wins the election as OTL, would things have stopped? Is there a risk that even without a visit to the Temple Mount, violence would have still broken out?
