It is no less than the Jewish community itself who is opposed to the whole idea, as it is they who affirm that Abraham's lineage resides within the entirety of the human race.
Which dilutes lineage into irrelevance, as confirmed by covenant Scripture (Genesis 17:12).

Sure, there are some in every crowd that dispute things. And one can always find "evidence" that supports their presuppositions. I can list a bunch of links to articles and supposed "experts" who claim we never put a man on the moon too.
Now, the task would be, prove that what I stated was in error. Prove that Ezra and Nehemiah had no clue what they were talking about. Prove that none of any of the northern tribes migrated south and joined with Judah. I know many Jewish and Messianic Jewish people that do not subscribe to the links you posted. I didn't bother listing any of them simply because it was not necessary. The Scripture, historical, and archaeological evidence was all that was needed.
And do I take the word of a bunch of malcontents in the 20th and 21st century or do I take the word of the writers of Chronicles along with Ezra and Nehemiah? That should be a no brainer. And of the historical and archaeological evidence, it is not biased, just history and archaeology. Not the level of scripture, but more worthy of consideration than opinions from those whose credibility is questionable. Like one Jew who is capitalizing on this "no DNA Jews" idea, Shlomo Sand. A art critic and history prof that lives in Israel because he likes the Tel Aviv coffee scene that has no credibility in DNA science whatsoever. The guy has been thoroughly debunked as a crack pot.
But anyone is free to choose. One key to anything in this regard, I like to err on the side of caution. The scripture is replete with comments from Yahweh that folks will be judged on how they treated the Hebrew people. And even if I am wrong, well, I viewed and treated folks with concern that I am to show anyone. If I am right and the opposition is wrong... well.... there could be consequences. Either way, I am covered.
