Stir in green and black olives, capers, basil and hot pepper flakes to taste. Bring to a steady, gentle simmer and cook for 15 minutes. Adjust seasonings. Stir in the parsley and cook until the sauce has thickened. Cook the vermicelli according to directions until al dente.
Drain. Toss with enough of the sauce to coat the pasta well.
