Well right now unconfirmed spectualation is all we got, just like its unconfirmed speculation that the stormcloaks are dum.

"Until there is evidence that the Thalmor use spies against the Empire-"

-we will have to use the most reasonable answer, most likely, yes.

"No, the statement is, as I said: Until we have records of spies there simply aren't spies"

Thats like saying, untill there is records of my son, I have no son. Even though his son is right in front of him.

"Nothing "private war information", the only records of a spy that we have is Gissur and that Khajiit after you escape the Embassy"

It is unlikely that a army as big as the Thalmor, would only have 2 spies, its like saying, I only saw 2 of his fingers so there must be only 2 fingers.

"It's weak, but the only force that could possibly defeat the Dominion."

Ya and even if they do, they would be so crippled their goverment would collapse, becuase they wouldn't have the men to enforce their laws. What on earth is "dum"?

Well yeah, of course it's all we got, we know as good as nothing about the Thalmor or their armies. Where they are positioned, what they are composed of, all of that if largely unknown.

Nothing reasonable about it, since the Dominion doesn't want another war to start right now and neither does the Empire.

Then there's evidence of the son now isn't there: You can see him. Bad comparison.

Well, if you didn't see the rest of his hand, maybe he lost the other 3? Having only two spies in Skyrim isn't illogical, especially since the Empire only has one.

Irrelevant.
