So here we had a formerly submissive people taking control over Arabs, both Muslim and Christian, and also this was seen as an act of colonialism at a time the world was trying to free itself from imperial control.

We kind of see that in another part of the world. Liberia. Same dynamics happened there. The local population resented the American Africans who set up the Liberian state and viewed them like European colonizers and have had a tense relationship ever since.
