Never said it was. It was, however, a clear indication that international Zionist interests (wow, I can't believe I got to use that phrase unironically) had strong intentions of extending the land viable for reclamation by a proposed Jewish state as far as they could.

The funny thing, the Jewish illegal immigration at the time was not all that different from the Arab immigration today...only the Jews where not going for economic opportunity.
They were going for ethnic cleansing. How wonderful.
