Well "they" do blow up a lot of Hiltons-- in Egypt, Lebanon, Bali, Bagdad, etc. The difference is that these places are 100% concentrations of Outsiders, not locals, the very people "they" are trying to target. If I stayed in the Hilton or some other international chain in Bagdad I would feel uneasy. Even though these places have the "best security" in the country, they are also an obvious target for a truck bomb.
At the Atlanta Hilton I would worry about the local muggers and homeless beggers. Not truck bombs.
