Neither.  Or rather, the plan is the answer to the "Jewish question."

"Are we to 'get out' now and where to?"

And he asks the Jewish question because he sees that Jews are victims of
anti-semitism.  He wants to create a Jewish state so that Jews can
finally escape anti-semitism.  It is meant to be a state where there is
no anti-semitism.
