Bob Dylan is Jewish (his given name was something like Robert Zimmerman). And, apparently, he is not a self-hating Jew. That may help to explain this interesting piece of music.

Dylan is a child of Emma Goldman and Abraham Maslow, the godparents of the 60s radicals. Maybe he's changed but few of them ever did.

Bob Dylan Bump!
It amazes me how the song is almost 20 years old and the lyrics still apply to today. He caught some flack when he came out with the song, not a popular sentiment at the time, but he has only disowned one song in his career. ("Ballad in plain D") Bully is a great song no matter what religion the songwriter is.
