The Omagh bombing of 1998. By Irish America Staff
The Irish and British governments have asked the United States to designate the Real IRA as a terrorist organization, a step that would prevent the organization from raising funds in the U.S. The Real IRA is widely believed to be responsible for planting the bomb that killed 31 people – including unborn twins – in Omagh in 1998. The organization has resurfaced recently and poses a threat to the peace process.

Q: In April 2020, I paid an attorney to have my husband’s will probated. After a few months and not having heard anything from this attorney, I contacted him. He stated that he would try to get me a hearing scheduled in about four or five weeks. Six weeks later I still had not heard a word from him. I contacted him again, and he said he was out of town and would get back to me. In December, I contacted him again, and he said he would have to make a few calls and then he would call me. Nothing has happened since then. What should I do now?

Antonio Maccanico
On February 1, 1996, merchant banker and two-time former cabinet minister Antonio Maccanico was named as interim prime minister of Italy. He was the first would-be premier to receive the support of both the ex-Stalinist PDS (Party of the Democratic Left) and the neo-fascist National Alliance, an event that marked a further stage in the rightward evolution of the remnants of the Italian Communist Party.
The right-wing Forza Italia of Silvio Berlusconi also supported Maccanico’s selection by President Oscar Luigi Scalfaro to replace another non-party technocrat, banker Lamberto Dini, who resigned a month prior after a year in office. But Maccanico was unable to form a government despite the support of the three major voting blocs, and returned his mandate two weeks later.
