blessed Love my lord, yes you are right, the word ites = hights, Bobo banner is red gold green, bingi and other rasta fly a green gold and red,
Ites, gold and green mean, ires(hights) = is on top, itres (red gold green not green gold red,) for even in ethiopia when his majesty returned upon the white horse the nation rised there banner Red(ites) gold and green, to symbolize freedom ,independance (like kwame Nkrumah did in Ghana) because if your county is being invaded, you would turn your flag down to sybolize war, if you check Ethiopia in the previous years of Selassie I, you will se the state flag Red (ites = Up) Gold and green, and his majesties word were, when they aske dhim what color his flag is, and internation understanding when you discribe you flag you go from top to bottom or if not left to right, which if you properly fly the colors to symbolize Rastafari Government, the green which symbolizes the land will be at the bottom, where our wealth(gold) and our blood(red is above the earth and living. Give thanks for Emmanuel and Boboshanti that upholded the principal, for bobo is the only one which keeps it red up like the original Binghis did, and od course Emmanuel is a original binghi man, who is the only one out of ALL of the original who branched off into their own thing to not bow out and turn down there own flag,
