US/NATO bombed the Chinese embassy [0] in former Yoguslavia so nothing is out of the question. Though this is UK. But still it shows embassies are not outside of US target zone.

In a country with which it was at war and with a badly degraded air defense system. Not against an ally with sophisticated, undamaged weaponry.
Yeah but that was a "mistake". Just as it was a "mistake" when NATO thought that the embassy was used as Serbia's military comm center. China stopped complaining after shown what NATO had on them.
sorry, what exactly do you think the US had to gain from bombing the chinese embassy in yugoslavia?
Dear China, stop helping them...
