The entire Middle East has not purchased any weapons of strategic importance from China to date. With the sole exception of the recent HQ-9B purchase from Egypt, which is still unconfirmed in my view.

Oh, Saudi has DF-21, that is the one.
Saudi Arabia brought China's DF-3 in 1988.

If you think about the long term implication of this H1b move, something surprising could happen. If US and Europe's current anti-immigrant trend continues, then Indians can no longer move to the west anymore. But their desperation to move for a better life will not stop. Where will they try to go if the west is no longer available?

China!

China recently opened up its Visa for high skilled people with engineering degrees. There is a strong chance Indians will start moving to China for better life!
Most Indian engineers would not qualify for work in China with their ability/inability. The brightest that does qualify, there are Indians working in China already.

Sounds like you are afraid of their talent. Just like Trump:

But seriously, India is a country of 1.5 billion. The US gives out 85,000 H1B visas per year. It's mind-boggling to me that such a tiny visa program has become a huge domestic issue in India. Even Rahul Gandhi brought it up in recent days as a knock on Modi. The Indian media is full of stories on the topic.

It says a lot about the mentality of the Indian upper-middle class and their desperation to leave India. Was it ever this bad for China? I can't recall that it was.

Pretty bearish sign for India, IMO.
Because Indians cheat at H1-B, they multi-apply H1-B to increase the chance of lottery through different Indian tech consultant companies. Now, with 100K, they can only apply once, have the chance as everyone else, of course it is a huge blow.
