Seriously, it's like this:
-there's a battle raging around us, people are killing each other and dying brutally but let's calm everyone down by having a concert with moe teen girls!! Whee hurray!! Everybody is happy and apparently, into underaged teens as well.
Wars are supposed to be nasty business. It's about death and destruction. In an era where entertainment is banned, a group of underaged moe-girls will change everything. They will destroy the status quo, lead a revolution against the "evil government" and make a change through... *drumrolls* Singing, dancing, and being MOE! How marvelous! How fantastic! How awesome! How idiotic! Apparently, the author/writer/creator have never experienced the horrors of "real war" before if they think moe-girls can save the world, or in this show's case, the galaxy.
Lets try having a bunch of underaged moe-girls go to Africa and start concerts over there where civil war is rampant. I bet my ass they'd be dead, held hostage, gang-raped, in just a few days.

Either we're not watching the same anime or you just got the wrong idea.
There's no war going, the government is just banning entertainment because they find it a distraction, since many of the people in the beginning of the show look like workers. It's a situation that happened during Tenpo Reform in Japan before so it's not unheard of. And like always, when the government pass oppressive laws, people act up and rebel, in this case AKB0048. But there's no actual "warring" going on, and no one is dying.
The theme of the show is just to live your dream without letting anyone stopping you, that's it. Also the show isn't really "moe" so far, only the design.
