In 2013, Nature announced the publication of the first genetic study utilizing next-generation sequencing to ascertain the ancestral lineage of an Ancient Egyptian individual. The research was led by Carsten Pusch of the University of Tübingen in Germany and Rabab Khairat, who released their findings in the Journal of Applied Genetics. DNA was extracted from the heads of five Egyptian mummies that were housed at the institution. All the specimens were dated between 806 BC and 124 AD, a timeframe corresponding with the late Dynastic period. The researchers observed that one of the mummified individuals likely belonged to the mtDNA haplogroup I2, a maternal clade that is believed to have originated in Western Asia.[17]

There's 500 to 1,000+ years between this and the time of Moses and Ramses II, the pharaoh in reference (claimed to have fair skin and red hair). During which time Egypt was conquered by several different groups.
Not to mention those mummies were not pharaohs, or they would have been described as such. It's like using my ancestry to prove Obama's.
Right above what you just quoted:

A DNA study Hawass at al. (2012) of two male mummies from the Ramesses III 20th dynasty of the New Kingdom found that they carried the haplogroup E1b1a.
This DNA was pulled directly from Ramses III, not "five Egyptian mummies". The pharaoh in question in the posts you quoted was Ramses II.
This is a link to the actual study:

They've also found that the other pharaohs they tested from that time period, including Tutankhamun, had similar DNA. Not to mention severe sickle cell disease being found in many of these pharoahs' mummies. Tut is now believed to have died from this, which originates and is vastly more prevalent in Africans.

(Reuters) -Up to 70 percent of British men and half of all Western European men are related to the Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun, geneticists in Switzerland said.
Scientists at Zurich-based DNA genealogy centre, iGENEA, reconstructed the DNA profile of the boy Pharaoh, who ascended the throne at the age of nine, his father Akhenaten and grandfather Amenhotep III, based on a film that was made for the Discovery Channel.
The results showed that King Tut belonged to a genetic profile group, known as haplogroup R1b1a2, to which more than 50 percent of all men in Western Europe belong, indicating that they share a common ancestor.

Egypt was multicultural and a melting pot and particularly later dynasties had Nubian and Sub-Sahara influence, maybe even pure Nubian rulers. The earlier dynasties however, were almost certainly not, they might - as King Tuts DNA suggests, even have been of Indo-European admixture at least.
Did you even read this? That Swedish study does not refer to actual DNA testing, but them making assumptions based on images of him.

"
King Tutankhamun died from sickle-cell disease, not malaria, say experts. A team from Hamburg's Bernhard Noct Institute for Tropical Medicine (BNI) claim the disease is a far likelier cause of death than the combination of bone disorders and malaria put forward by Egyptian experts earlier this year.
“The disease can only manifest itself when a sickle cell trait is inherited from both parents: it is a so-called 'recessive inheritance'.”"

Three quarters of sickle-cell cases occur in Africa. A recent WHO report estimated that around 2% of newborns in Nigeria were affected by sickle cell anaemia, giving a total of 150,000 affected children born every year in Nigeria alone. The carrier frequency ranges between 10% and 40% across equatorial Africa, decreasing to 1–2% on the north African coast and <1% in South Africa.
...
The prevalence of the disease in the United States is approximately 1 in 5,000, mostly affecting Americans of Sub-Saharan African descent, according to the National Institutes of Health.[57] In the United States, about 1 out of 500 African-American children and 1 in every 36,000 Hispanic-American children born will have sickle-cell anaemia.
...
As a result of population growth in African-Caribbean regions of overseas France and immigration from North and sub-Saharan Africa to mainland France, sickle-cell disease has become a major health problem in France
...
In the United Kingdom (UK) it is thought that between 12,000 to 15,000 people have sickle cell disease [67] with an estimate of 250,000 carriers of the condition in England alone.
