JOSM doesn't read shapefiles natively. Instead, you need the OpenData plugin to open shapefiles.

Also, I don't remember what import this is for, but isn't there any processing to do first? (tagging, etc.). Also, I think it's generally preferred to either have an .osm or .osc (OsmChange file) that is uploaded from instead of a shapefile.
