Point 1 was supposed to provide a lore-abiding possibility of how. The Dunlendings did indeed willingly take part in Saruman's conquest to destroy Rohan, mainly because a) they wanted back the land they believed was rightfully theirs (Rohan) and b) because Saruman lied to them about the Rohirrim, saying that they were cruel and burned their enemies alive. So, well, yes, they participated in Saruman's experiments willingly, although he deceived them to get their loyalty. The Dunlendings aren't exactly outstanding warriors, and thus they knew that they would have to ally with the Uruk-hai to have a chance of seizing Rohan.

THINK ABOUT IT FROM DUNLAND'S SIDE. They were in rohan long before the rohirrim. And they had a peaceful existence. Then gondor gives eord land that is not gondor's to give and the rohirrim come and slaughter the dunlendings. I WOULDN'T EXACTLY CALL THE ROHIRRIM SAINTS.
