In the Second Age when the Numenoreans became cruel they started subjugating the Haradrim and other native peoples and forcing them out of their own lands. Of course this was just because of kings like Adunakhor. So when the faithful landed after Numenors downfall the native peoples would probably still be angry and want revenge. With the influence of Sauron they begin to fight the faithful. So in eyes of the Haradrim and other peoples fighting Gondor they are trying to retake their lands.
