And a WAR isn't going to solve that. It just depletes resources. Besides, the Stormcloaks have no plan for the future. Tullius was a jerk, but I can see where he is coming from when he says "damn you nords and your honor" (yes the comment can be considered disrespectful and rude, but he does have a point). The point is that in wartime a bunch of countries fighting separately against one organized military force aren't going to work effectively. Now an alliance of different nations might work (as evidenced by both World Wars, as well as NATO), but the Stormcloaks don't seem to be leaning towards that, and they'd probably have a hard time getting along with the other races of Tamriel.
