No, you're absolutely right, and the term is still used with that meaning, too.
If a person is against a war because they are against war on principle, and so have never been in the military, that makes sense. That's consistent. But if a person is for a war and not only that but for MORE wars without being willing to join the military or any take any supportive role in the war effort, they are lazy and cowardly.
