My favorite part is where VDH demolishes the final question from a delusional pro-Palestinian student. See that part imediately below:

I have been slack in my duty of posting about the progress of World War IV on this blog because I have been distracted by other things the past couple of years. Well, I am beginning to correct that. This video is a refresher course for those who've forgotten the enemy we've been fighting and why we must win this fight.
