It's the same in the U.S. People talk about "militant feminists" et al. Military is about keeping order. "Militant" refers to violent action against the established order. Exactly. That is how the words are supposed to mean. Military is still derived from the word militant. If they are keeping order— order from what?—and one doesn't have to be militant to do this, why is the term military still used then?
