You're probably right. If this happened in reverse, the US would send cruise missiles over to bomb the hell out of the country who attacked a US embassy.

The attack was intentional and was done probably behind the back of the US admin. The reasons:
1) Chinese embassy moved to that place a few years ago. Even AAA updates its maps annually. How can you believe CIA, which is supposed to be best intelligence agency in the world, would make this mistake.
2) If CIA or NATO don't do their own research, they could get on the internet to get the accurate street map through Yahoo or AOL.
3) The timing of the bombing is very interesting - right after Russia and G7 were ready to cut a deal with Yogoslavia government. Rumor on the street is some people in the military hate Clinton so much and also don't want to see a peace deal that might not be regarded as a total victory for NATO, i.e, they intended to sabotage the peace negotiation by boombing Chinese embassy.
4) Sent a warning message to Chinese government because since the begining of the war, Chinese government has been on the Yogoslavia side.
