Well, I actually do suspect that she's making an anti-war statement, myself. The peace symbol originates with early antinuclear protests, and it's literally never existed outside of an American political context.
That said, it's not as if you can find Jesus saying a bad word for peace in most of the New Testament. Quite the contrary, if one reads the Sermon on the Mount.

This has been an unusual few days. Kelly's father had a stroke on Thursday, so we left town suddenly to see him, ultimately choosing to drive since we can't afford plane tickets on no notice. He's going to be fine; his vision was affected at first but he seems recovered now, pending another examination. Go »Not in My Back Yard
I love Unsolved Mysteries. The show told such interesting stories in perfect bite-size pieces, and knew how to make the hair on your neck stand up. I wish they were more objective in their reporting and didn't rely on pseudoscience as evidence (using psychics to prove ghosts and polygraph results to condemn criminals), but damn they put on an entertaining show.
