Syrian opposition elects Hitto as provisional premier
Syrian opposition leaders chose Western-educated technocrat Ghassan Hitto as provisional prime minister in what they hope will be the first step to fill a power vacuum arising from a two-year-long revolt against President Bashar al-Assad.
At a meeting of the Syrian National Coalition in Istanbul that stretched well into the night, Hitto received 35 votes of around 50 cast by coalition members.
"I give great thanks to the heroes and revolutionaries of the Syrian people. We are with you," Hitto told coalition members in brief remarks after he was named.

From the ashes arise's an army
From the blood of infants arise's an army
From the tears of mothers arise's an army
From love of country arise's an army
From the hearts of brave and courage arise's an army
From the blessings arise's an army
From freedom and liberty arise's an army
From ashes arise's an army for this army fears only God.
