[3]  During this time,  Igmund, son of the previous Jarl, took it upon himself to seek help from  Ulfric Stormcloak  in ousting the Reachmen invaders. He promised Ulfric that if he re-took the Reach, then Igmund as Jarl would allow free worship of  Talos  - an act that was recently outlawed at the end of the war. Ulfric agreed and marched his militia to the gates of Markarth and ruthlessly retook the city using the power of his  Thu'um. [1]

Igmund is the reason for the Thalmor coming, if he said that to ANY true Talos believer they would of done that, it just happened to be Ulfric, if Ulfric disagreed, he just would of moved on to someone else. I do hope you realise that there was only Ulfric. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made an offer that would violate the WGC.
