Dalai Lama prays at the Wailing Wall The Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader, bows in prayer as he touches the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem during the second day of a five-day visit to Israel. Also in Jerusalem, a government source confirmed on Monday that Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin learned about provocations against Muslims last October and warned security officials to be on alert for extremist acts by Jews at the mosque where a settler killed 30 Arabs. The source said Rabin was told about tension between settlers and Arabs in Hebron and incidents of acid being poured on Muslim prayer rugs. The statement followed testimony to a five-judge inquiry panel from army officials that they were not prepared for an act of terror by Jewish settlers.
