Topic: Abd ul Hamid II


  
  ‘Abdu’l-Hamid II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
‘Abdu’l-Ḥamīd II (Ottoman Turkish: عبد الحميد ثانی `Abdu’l-ḥamîd-i sânî, Turkish: İkinci Abdülhamid) (September 21, 1842 – February 10, 1918), was a Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.
Over the years Sultan Hamid succeeded in reducing his ministers to the position of secretaries, and he concentrated much of the administration of the Empire into his own hands at Yildiz.
The government, restored by soldiers from Salonica, decided on Abdul Hamid's deposition, and on April 27 his brother Reshid Efendi was proclaimed as Sultan Mehmed V.

The WZO's initial strategy was to obtain the permission of the Ottoman Sultan Abd-ul-Hamid II to allow systematic Jewish settlement in Palestine.
Instead the WZO pursued a strategy of building a homeland through persistent small-scale immigration, and the founding of such bodies as the Jewish National Fund in 1901 and the Anglo-Palestine Bank in 1903.
However, attacks against British targets were recommenced in 1940 by a splinter group of the Irgun, later known as Lehi, and in 1944 by the Irgun itself.
