Also when Rock Lee and Sasuke first fought Sasuke thought Lee was using magic. "Whatever kind of Magic he's using Ill see through it with My Sharingan." But it only turned out to be High Speed Taijutsu.

That 1 line made me think that all Chakra is Magic whether it be internal Spiritual Energy or External Spiritual Energy+Genetic Gifts aka Kekkei Genkai. So can Ninjas in Naruto be considers Wizards or Warlocks in Harry Potter? yes they can, you only need to change the powersystem, the rituals, the chants and some effects caused by certain jutsus, oh, sorry, spells, and tada, you have "ninjas=magicians" ^_^
