To me saying "the concept of war is over" isn't a call for peace but for some sort of NewSpeak-style eradication of the ability to think about war. I don't think that's what John and Yoko were saying.

That's fair enough. I just wanted to distinguish "War Is Over" from "The War Is Over" which is a very different thing.

I think that would use a pronomial.
