The video is almost 1.5 hours loong. Can you summarize or give a hint of its contents?
The Talmud tells us that the world was supposed to be worried about a unified Germany (way before such a country existed). From the Book of Esther, he shows that Esther predicted the final results of the Nuremberg trials.
I haven't watched the video, but I would guess that gematria plays a role in the prophecy, as gematria almost always does whenever anyone is searching for prophecies in the Tanakh or Talmud.
There is the "Code of Esther" which (to sum it up as simply as possible) has to do with the ten sons of Haman who were hanged at Purim -- and how there were an equal number of ten convicted Nazi war criminals who were hanged after the Nuremberg Trials.
The gematria comes in with the Hebrew letters in the names of Hamans' sons, which supposedly add up to the number 707. The Hebrew year of 5707 (secular year 1946) was the year in which the ten Nazi criminals (symbolizing Haman's sons) were hanged.
You can Google "Code of Esther" or "Esther Code" to find a better and more detailed recounting of the tale than I've written here, as I'm not sure I told it right. It's a story that's been circulating for a very long time, and most likely pre-dates what Rabbi Kraft has to say in this video (unless Rabbi Kraft had anything new to add).
As with all these prophecies, though, they work best with 20/20 hindsight.
One needs to watch a good chunk of it to get to the Purim part meaning the Book of Esther. The first part of the video does talk about Germany at length.

That is a good summary of the second part of the video. Gematria or not it is quite interesting to watch!

I'll set aside some time to watch it later. I happen to be very much into gematria (even though I'm sometimes a bit skeptical of predictions made).
