I keep reading about countries where the concept of humor in a cartoon is so ignored that cartoonists have been sued and even threatened with arrest. Do they not see how this just humilates the people making the threats against the cartoonists? I guess this is a cultural thing.

But it would fail in court anyway. Sadly, Peters will have to address the issue legally which could cost him big money just to prove how wrong they are. Oy veh! That is sad news.
