China labels NATO bombings ``terrorism''

BEIJING, April 23 (Reuters) - China's state media on Friday branded NATO
bombings in Yugoslavia ``terrorism'' and said the alliance was walking a
dangerous road on its 50th anniversary.

A commentary in the official China Daily linked NATO's bombing of Serbian
government and military infrastructure with high-profile terrorist attacks
against U.S. targets.

``The scenes are vividly reminiscent of bloody scenes of the U.S. embassy in
Kenya and the U.S. federal government building in Oklahoma,'' it said.

``The fact that NATO's rampage is more professional and has an explicit
ideological gloss might put it into a slightly different category, but it
does not alter the terroristic nature of the attacks.''

The commentary also warned citizens of NATO member nations that they may be
the next victims of Western ``butchery.''

``The bell that tolls for the innocent people of Yugoslavia today may be
heard in their own neighbourhood tomorrow,'' it said.

The Communist Party newspaper, the People's Daily, also said NATO was
embarking on a dangerous new strategic road as its leaders converged on
Washington for a three-day 50th anniversary summit.

It said NATO would shift from a defensive posture and take a more active role
in international affairs. It also said NATO would seek continued eastward
expansion.

``Everyone take note,'' the paper said. ``The new NATO strategy is aggressive
and dangerous.''

``If the strategy is approved and put into action it will destroy the
existing international political and economic order.''
