[Manmasseh People's Flag] by Nicholas Rucks


See also:

I saw yesterday in a program called "Quest for the Lost Tribes" the flag of a people called the "Manmasseh" or "Manasseh". These people live in the states of Manipur and Mizoram near the India-Burma border and they allege that they belong to the tribe of Manasseh which is one of the 10 lost tribes of Israel. According to the program they are trying to create a sovereign Israelite state in that area. They display a flag that has three horizontal stripes: Green, Red, and Blue. The red stripe is double the width of the other two stripes. At the center of the red stripe there is a blue Star of David on a white background. The white background has the same contour as the star. The size seems to be 2:3

The white background of the Star of David does not quite touch the green and blue stripes. The flag was designed for a proposed independent Manmasseh state which is called Zaleg B'en or something like that. The Star of David was selected because it was a neutral symbol among the different sub-tribes that compose the Manmasseh or Manasseh people.
