You do understand, that this book also stated that a stormcloack victory has to be avoided, and that Ulfric no longer cooperatives with them anymore? He's either with them or against them, there is nothing grey about that, and he is against the thalmor. His past is interesting though, but lot of people misunderstand this, and thinks Ulfric is a sleeper agent. I doubt that. I even doubt that he would work with the thalmor. I also doubt that he worked for the thalmor, however I see a possibility for that. The thalmor wants to avoid a victory, doesn't matter which side's victory is it. Ulfric is (was if you finished the civil war) a valuable asset because he led the rebellion, thus dividing skyrim. They don't want either side to win, because that would make skyrim a united (if sided with the stormcloaks, independent) land. If nobody would win, it would be a major benefit for the thalmor, because they can just rest while the stormcloaks and imperials fight each other, the longer they fight the bigger their casualties will be. That's how Ulfric is an asset to them, he leads a rebellion that divides skyrim, weakening it, while it lasts. While there's a rebellion going on it's good, if either side wins bad.
