Wrong. Anyone worth their salt always advocates pro peace, not antiwar. The power of words are a thing. And they determine your focus.

I'm interested in your definition of the difference between the two statements.

My take on it is pro peace means peace but sometimes you have to get your hands dirty. Some battles and wars can't be avoided. Antiwar is no war at all cost. To me that's not practical in this world. Some people can't be talked down. They only understand the stick.

My father had a saying when it came to discipline with me as a child. "First I will ask, then I will tell, then I make."

A reasonable stance.
