Iran on Friday banned U.S. wrestlers from an important international tournament this month in response to President Donald Trump's executive order forbidding visas for Iranians, the official IRNA news agency reported.
A senior Iranian cleric vowed, meanwhile, that his country would continue its missile program despite threats from the Trump administration that it was preparing to levy new sanctions.

Exactly...that is the point for them.
I can hear them, in that Brian Williams voice the media seems to adore: "The first in what many expect to be a long list of retaliatory actions for Trump's ban on the immigration of muslims is damaging US credibility around the world..."
I can just hear that.
