There is nothing wrong with context it helps build bridges, and this is what needs to happen here., Both sides need to start building bridges and find common ground. Genetic evidence is common ground. Why reject it?
No one rejects it. But you seem to believe that all the conflicts between modern countries can be solved by referring to history. Something like "You were one people a thousand/some hundred years ago. Why don't you kiss each other and forget everything that divides you". Or "what's the use of trying to reconcile these two nations - they are genetically so different". It doesn't work that way. Modern problems should be solved here and now, without looking back at what was at the time of Alexander or even before. Otherwise the British and the Germans could strike a deal quite easily in 1939 - after all they share a common Saxon heritage.
