Hail!
As most of us who study runelore knows, Algiz is a rune of protective qualities. "The Elk" rune is one that I use in many charms against negative energies and ill-intentioned aggression. Here's one of the poems on Algiz
The Rune Poem – Verse XV
The Elk-sedge usually lives in the fen,
growing in the water. It wounds severely,
staining with blood any man
who makes a grab at it.
With that being said, the peace sign is about 57 years old, and was established at one of the many heights of the new aged Runic revivals. This was also a time deep within the high-tensioned conflict of the Cold War, that almost led to near catastrophic outcomes. Gerald Holtom was one of the many activists who were pro nuclear disarment, but he was the father of the world renowned peace sign.
Now, I may just be crazy, but I feel it's a tad fishy that a universal sign of peace is actually an old rune that empowers the exact opposite while it is in its reversed position
