Having analyzed these three poems and the ideas conveyed , it is quite obvious that one can see a development : Sadler's poem stands like a rock with ist positive , idealistic patriotism. In " Blowing in the Wind" this " rock" is attacked by doubts and questions , yet no answers are given.
This changes , however , in " With God on our side: Here, a definitive answer is given : the clear , outspoken message is " stop the next war! ". Dylan has thus lost the vagueness and doubt of " Blowing in the Wind" and is just as outspoken as is Sadler in " Ballad of the Green Berets".
