If the Thalmor would have took complete control over the Empire by killing Mede and conquering all of Cyrodiil, massive genocide would happen. He knew this and the only solution to this was signing the WGC.

Did you not read my earlier post? the Thalmor did not have any significant force, Mede had no reason to sign the WGC, he could have easily sent a force to help the redguards wipe out the AD soldiers in hammerfell and the thalmor would have been stuck in their territory, where if Titus Mede wanted to he could have easily retaken.
