I dont think you can blame the people that greeted him in his homeland. Dont forget that the US and UK WERE very much their enimies back then. If a US marine/agent had been held hostage in Iran for 20 years, he would be greeted with a parade as well + most likely get to drink a beer with Obama.
It's not like the american pilots that carried out the last of Henry Kissinger bombings in Korea, were put on trial either.
The only problem I have with this, is that it undermines the International Legal system in a time where we need it the most
