Meh, there's no evidence that the Thalmor are trying to undo the Towers. The Thalmor wish to return to the Dawn and to their immortal state. Logiclly, this would be the Towers would need to go, but they haven't destroyed a single one. The Prisoners are doing a fine job at that all on their own. At least 4 Towers have been downed by the Prisoner, 3 for sure.

Simply put, as has been said, the Thalmor want Talos gone because he is Lorkhan. The Doom Drum is their eternal enemy. They want Men gone because they believe their mythopoeic energies hold up Talos. Since Talos is a CHIMster this isn't correct. The proof is in c0da. Men are gone, but Talos is still getting sloshed at parties.
