There is so much wrong with your post, I'm not quite sure where to begin. But let's try:
1)Fast forward to the PRESENT! You are always fond of World War II examples, etc. That was over 60 years ago!
2)Our being in Iraq is because it's part of a war on "terrorism". Really? Dang convient how we've forgotten about those old wmds, saddams a bastard, mean to his people etc. All the experts said there were no ties to Al Quaeda BEFORE we attacked!
Why would I possibly THINK we may not be able to afford it?
Hmm..maybe because of a simple economics lesson: You can't pay/buy things if you don't have the money for it!
For you to say "OH we can stay there indefinitely spending whatever amount of money we need" is beyond naive, it's now downright stupidity!
If you fantasy thinking was true, man we could pay for a lot of things in THIS country!
