Your brother is profiting off of something he opposes!

He's also putting himself at risk.

I would consider those who are against the war but buying Haliburton or Raytheon stock hypocritical profiteers. I would consider Richard Perle selling out to the Chinese as profiteering. I do not consider my brother to be profiteering, or a hypocrit.

Are college age men who are in favor of the war, but do not enlist hypocrits in your opinion. If not, why not?

I do not feel hypocritical. What you are saying does not make much sense. It's like saying I'm a hypocrit for supporting the police getting criminals, but not joining the police force. Or supporting the firemen putting out fires, even though I do not want to be a fireman.

Everyone puts themselves at risk everyday. just taking a drive. His risk level has nothing to do with his anti -war stance!

If your anti war why would you buy those stocks anyway?

You idea that someone would not enlist yet be in favor of the war and something is wrong with that is ignorant!
