In all of that, Herzl's vision turned out to be manifestly unrealistic. The Ottomans proved completely unwilling to concede any part of their Empire to the Zionist Movement, and the sale of individual Arab plots of land proved one of the most contentious issues of what would become the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. Until 1947, the Zionist movement would be able to buy up less than 7% of the land of Palestine; in 1948 it would obtain much more, a result of that year's partition and subsequent military conquest.
