If you pay attention to the lore, Ulfric is currently a thalmor agent, He was brainwashed into thinking the empire was evil by them, and never showed their face. He doesn't know he's doing exactly what the thalmor want, If the Empire is weak, guess what happens, Thalmor take over. While it is true Ulfric was captured and tortured, he isn't an agent. He might have been brainwashed a bit, but he doesn't work for The Dominion. It is true that Ulfric is making both The Empire and The Stormcloaks weaker with the war though. He is an agent, do you know why? The Thalmor gave him the task to start the war, and therefore summon Aldiun, So the last dragonborn will arrive, and they can kill the blades
