In between, Dylan takes aim at his targets. The third verse has been controversial, with Dylan complaining about foreign oil controlling the United States, with

Sheiks walkin’ around like kings
Wearing fancy jewels and nose rings
Deciding America's future from Amsterdam and to Paris[4][7]

Paul Williams criticizes this verse for conveying "racial prejudice and righteous nationalism."[9] Author John Nogowski complains that this implies that God is a "distinctly American figure."[10] Other critics found the verse to be racist and jingoistic, although author Seth Rogovoy, writing 30 years later, claims that although "perhaps overly patriotic at the time," the verse has proved prophetic, as reliance on foreign energy had laid the foundation for the "long-term destruction of America's economic engine," with destructive environmental consequences to boot.[6]

после Алексиевич Дилан и правда поэт и литератор,
певец американского апокалипсизма, в стиле Рей Бредбери кстати

у Дилана я так понимаю средства специальные для массового общества разработаны
но мне как-то не близка тема сама по себе.
