Israel is sensitive to criticism on the way they abuse human rights in Palestinian territories? Really? Why, that's very nice of them. I would love to see examples of it if you can provide a few links.

Oh for crying out loud, read Ha'aretz any day of the week, and you'll see that they are sensitive to it. They argue back and forth, they have a reporter in Ramallah reporting the Palestinian side of affairs. The IDF just arrested a bunch of soldiers accused of looting in the territories.

But the Israelis will never be so sensitive as to remove the "humiliation" of the checkpoints, however, because even Ha'aretz remembers what the European papers chose to forget, that terrorists are trying to kill as many Jews as they can. The checkpoints came into being in reaction to the terrorists, and won't go away until the terrorists do.
