  NATO Speech: Morning Briefing by Jamie Shea - 2 May 1999   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Jamie Shea: It was an AV-8B US aircraft which I believe crashed into the Adriatic attempting to return to a US carrier but very close to the carrier and the pilot was rescued.
Jamie Shea: We know that several missions have not taken place in the last few days because of the impact of NATO strikes and because of the oil shortage and problems of moving around.
Jamie Shea: Certainly we have depleted the Serb air defence in a very major way and we know that because our planes are able to operate very well at the medium-to-high altitudes, that is clear and we have no confirmation that planes that have crashed, crashed because they were intercepted by missiles.

 Jamie Shea
Shea seems the embodiment of the NATO operation, its fitting public face.
In his glibness and lightmindedness, in his dishonesty and effortless dissembling, Shea is a genuine representative, along with Clinton and Blair, of the generation and social layer that form a significant percentage of the political elite in the NATO countries.
Shea's relatively distinguished academic career also suggests something about the current level of so-called intellectual life.

 NATO spokesman Jamie Shea: the education of a war propagandist
Shea's aim in his thesis is not to deal objectively with the problem of the literary representation of war.
The most significant of Shea's borrowings from Cru is the simplistic notion that an eyewitness account is the only valid one in literature and that the more experience a writer had of the front the better he would understand the nature of the war.
Although Shea's thesis deals with the years between 1914 and 1920, the formative experiences of the majority of men who fought on the front and wrote about it were in the years when the Dreyfus affair was at its height.

 Press Conference Given by Mr Jamie Shea and Major General Walter Jertz (Presentation )   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Jamie Shea: No, but so far I have counted over 70 NATO aircraft said to be shot down by the Yugoslav forces, and that makes 71.
Jamie Shea: No, don't draw that conclusion Stephen because genuinely it would be wrong and I don't want anybody to have to write a different story one week later.
Jamie Shea: If I may add to that just briefly, I saw some press reports that we stopped at midnight, as if there were a curfew on NATO air strikes, but I can assure you we carried on after midnight.

 Press Coference of the NATO Spokesman, Jamie Shea and Air Commodore David Wilby - NATO HQ, 3rd April 1999
Jamie Shea: No, I've been at all the meetings, Patricia, and the military advice consistently from the Chairman of the Military Committee and from SACEUR has been that air power will be effective, provided that it is given long enough in order to make a telling effect.
Jamie Shea: Craig, as I mentioned, I have to be cautious on figures for the simple reason that SACEUR is preparing on an urgent basis a concept of operations.
Jamie Shea: Ok Journalist: Air Commodore, when you hit last night buildings that apparently are empty, is the idea to prove Milosovic and the Government that you can as well hit him any time if you know exactly where it is. Is Milosovic nowadays a possible target to one of those effects.

 Jamie Shea Backgrounder in Brussels on May 3, 1999
JAMIE SHEA: Well obviously we are very pleased that Russia clearly wants to engage with the NATO countries in the search for a diplomatic solution to the crisis in Kosovo.
JAMIE SHEA: No. This is being done, Dimitri, on a bilateral basis but obviously the NATO Allies are all heavily engaged in those talks.
JAMIE SHEA: We don't want the population to get the message, Doug, I think they got the message years ago when their standards of living started plummeting as a result of the misrule of the current government.

 USIS Washington File: TRANSCRIPT: NATO BACKGROUNDER BY SPOKESMAN JAMIE SHEA JUNE 2
JAMIE SHEA: Well, ladies and gentlemen, today the three key elements of NATO strategy to build a stable, peaceful future for all of the peoples of the Balkans, are coalescing around Belgrade.
JAMIE SHEA: First of all, on the incident in Albania, we know as you do, because we announced this already yesterday evening, that a number of NATO bombs dropped inadvertently on the wrong side of the border yesterday in Albania.
JAMIE SHEA: Margaret, the only thing I can say is don't take my word for it, which I hope you won't, at least you will listen to President Ahtisaari himself, and President Ahtisaari during the news conference that he gave with Mr.

 Online NewsHour: NATO military briefing -- May 26, 1999
Jamie Shea : Those contingency plans relate to a number of different ground options, but at the moment they are simply plans in the cupboard, nothing more than that, although those plans are taken out of the cupboard occasionally, dusted down and up-dated in the light of changing circumstances, but this is simply contingency planning.
Jamie Shea : There are two levels here: the first level is at the level of high diplomacy where of course the nature of the Peace Implementation Force, the mandate, the composition, are one of the focus points of these disucssions going on in Moscow and in the framework of the UN Security Council Resolution.
Jamie Shea : Pierre, one area where we have had some success is in Bosnia Herzegovina where an agreement between the governments of the Republika Srpska and the Sfor soldiers there has enabled us to more or less clamp down on any illicit cross-border of oil supplies, refined oil supplies, between Bosnia Herzegovina and Yugoslavia.

 USIS Washington File: TRANSCRIPT: BACKGROUNDER BY NATO SPOKESMAN JAMIE SHEA, JUNE 7
SHEA: Mark, I generally don't at this stage want to get into the specific nitty-gritty of those talks, I don't think that is really going to help, particularly as I want to stress once again that they have not been broken off, they have been suspended, but we are ready to resume at any time.
SHEA: I have made it clear that the Allies very much want a UN Security Council resolution, we want it as soon as possible, we are redoubling our efforts in that direction and that is why there is going to be this meeting of the G-8 in Bonn today.
SHEA: The Ambassadors, as you know, are those in the Council which give SACEUR his guidance, they take the decisions, and so obviously they are free to direct SACEUR to act in any way in which they so choose, but of course I am not going to start speculating on details.

 Jamie Shea - Washington Post
Although the briefing is ostensibly held for the media, it was always clear that Shea's primary targets were elsewhere--in the living rooms of the 19 NATO countries, where the defection of even one government could shatter the resolve of the alliance, and in Belgrade, where he hoped to nourish dissension among Yugoslavia's elite.
In France, where Shea's fluent French is widely noticed, his new status was heralded with the debut of a Jamie Shea puppet on a much-watched TV satire show.
Shea concedes he still has a lot to learn but makes it clear he's not about to be reined in, either by generals or media experts.

 NATO Speech: Morning Briefing by Jamie Shea - 3 June 1999
Jamie Shea: Mark, I am not going to comment on the diplomatic efforts because they are not being conducted from here as you well know and I don't think it would be appropriate for me to comment on those diplomatic efforts.
Jamie Shea: My understanding is that President Ahtisaari, when he does leave Belgrade, will report of course to the European Union summit in Cologne but I am certain that NATO will be briefed in due course - when something happens I'll let you know.
Julie: Jamie, the New York Times was reporting today that SACEUR was asked not to come to a briefing at the White House where the Pentagon brass was supposed to review the options for the air strikes and whatever other options they are looking at.

JAMIE SHEA: Yes there was one missile, bomb, that went astray and landed I understand again at some houses.

SHEA: But again, the question is not scenario as such because the scenario was simply a plot which was designed to get ministers thinking in a creative brain-storming way.

JAMIE SHEA: Julie, if I may just interrupt - I apologise because I need to go to something else which awaits me -- but very briefly, there has been no pause.

Jamie Shea : Mark, we cannot do anything to give any guarantees to the departing Serb forces in the absence of a military technical agreement, the whole purpose of this military technical agreement is to organise this in a way that NATO can have confidence in it.
Jamie Shea : No, I think that the United States would have all of the means required to get them into Kosovo from Albania but that is a detail that should be addressed to the Pentagon rather than here but as I say, it is a detail.
