I don't mis-apply the term in the slightest. A very small percentage of the populace serves in the armed forces, too small account for the across the board support for the overweaning military machine. If there was this "strong" anti-war support that you claim, how do explain all the wars we find ourselves getting into? When was the last massive march on Washington? 
"I am sympathetic to all peaceful people who are the main victims of war."
So your sypathetic to all the dead Iraqis, Afhgan, Syrians, etc, etc. done in by our Middle East adventure? How touching. Comparing our body count to Putins puts the lie to your BS line. I do agree with one thing, I hope Europe will maintain NATO, on their own!
