    I never understood this argument.
    "If he was Greek why do Greeks fight with Macedonians?"
    It's not like Greeks never fought with Greeks. Did you miss the whole Peloponnese wars thingie? Athens vs Sparta vs Thebes?
    All the Greeks did was fight other Greeks most of the time.
    If you're going to try to argue about this, please avoid such logical fallacies in arguments.

    For I (Alexander I) myself am by ancient descent a Greek, and I would not willingly see Hellas change her freedom for slavery."
    (Herod. IX, 45, 2 [Loeb])

    Try
    Herodotus, "Histories", 9.45
    Or
    Alexander's letter to Persian king Darius in response to a truce plea, as quoted in "Anabasis Alexandri" by Roman historian Arrian, Book II, 14, 4
    You only asked for one book, I gave you two.
    Alexander was more closely related to other ancient Greeks than modern Greeks are.

    You totally didn't answer my point.
    My point was that Greeks often fought other Greeks.
    So it's not a good argument to say that if the Macedonians were Greeks they wouldn't fight other Greeks.
    I'm not saying Macedonians are Greeks or not. I'm saying that particular argument is stupid and wrong. Like your reading comprehension and writing composition.

    The Peloponnese wars between Sparta vs Athens (and later Thebes and Corinth) were wars with Pelasgians? I'm not talking about Ionian and Doric migration/conquest.
    Do they teach you anything right over there in Elbonia?

    first of all in the time of Alexander there was not Greece so he could not have said am Greek...2nd Pelasgians are the original people of todays Greece that's why probably Alexander said am Greek meaning that this is the land of the Pelasgians and Pelasgians are my fathers and we are the true people of the land

    there was Pela but also Emathia which mean the Great and the formal name of Macedon in the time of Alexander was Emathia (The Great) and there is no facts that suggest that Alexander or Macedonia was Greek and not one book is saying the Alexander was Greek .. sorry but your wrong

    first of all those were not Greek wars but Pelasgian-Greek wars Plato explained well on his book that when Greeks come as emigrants they fought with the Pelasgians for the Myth which today we call it Greek but in fact is Pelasgians this may explain why the Macedons who were Pelasgians fought with the Greeks also.. Alexander butchered the Greeks now he is Greek ???? lol
