Maybe this Israeli attack on Hizbollah is having unintended consequences

Does this much comment, from The Guardian:

Iran warned the west yesterday that attempts to broker a Lebanon peace deal at
today's Rome summit are destined to fail and it predicted a backlash across the
Muslim world unless Israel's military forces were immediately reined in.
Senior government officials said the exclusion from the summit of Iran,
Syria and their Lebanese ally Hizbullah meant that no lasting settlement was
possible.
Hamid Reza Asefi, the foreign ministry spokesman in Tehran, said:
"They should have invited all the countries of the region, including Syria and
Iran, if they want peace. How can you tackle these important issues without
having representatives of all countries in the region?"

The important question here: what if we ignore them? They want to be a power player in the worst way. We've already determined that, while they are very good at issuing threats, as a military state, they're no better than the 3rd world. This little annoucement smacks me as whining and snivelling to be taken seriously. They best thing we can do at this point is to humilate tham by excluding them from any talks.
