Precisely. Ben Gurion is considered a moderate in Zionist circles. Suggesting the Zionists should leave part of Syria to the Arabs for pragmatic reasons is considered moderate. Here is another quote from the moderate Ben Gurion:

"No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish people in Israel. No Jew has the authority to do so. No Jewish body has the authority to do so. Not even the entire Jewish people today has the authority to yield any part of Israel. It is the right of the Jewish people over generations, a right which under no condition can be canceled. Even if Jews in a specific period proclaim that they are relinquishing this right, they neither have the power nor the authority to deny this right to future generations. No concession of this type is binding or obligates the Jewish people. Our right to the country - to the entire country - exists as an eternal right, and until the full and complete redemption is realized, we shall not yield our historic right."

- David Ben-Gurion, in his speech at the Basle Zionist Congress, 1937
