The article considers the factors that influenced the policies of the Ottoman Empire on the Jewish colonization of Palestine at the turn of the 20th century – such as the spread and the fear of separatist sentiments, the increasing European influence, and the incompatibility of Zionism with the dominant ideology of Pan-Islamism – and discusses the mechanisms that allowed the Jews to bypass the imposed restrictions and continue their colonization efforts.
