"There is one thing you cannot deny. You say that Ulfric got captured because he was out fighting which is true but it does not explain why for the majority of the game he just sits in his throne or walks around the palace and only shows up for the Solitude battle, furthermore if you side with the Imperials and attack Windhelm what does Ulfric do? He justs hides in his palace while his men get killed defending him".

The same can be said for General Tullius he spent the same time doing the same thing that Ulfric was doing with Ulfric he is the Jarl of Windhelm he kind of needs to be managing his city so he cant just go out and lead his armies himself he needs to be managing his hold and its not wise to be captured the third time first time he was submitted to the Thalmor after the Markarth incident second time he was put to the chopping block without fair trial its a reason but for General Tullius he is a general sent to Skyrim specifically to quell the Civil War but he spends most of his time in the Castle Dour in Solitude and only joins during the siege of Windhelm I mean where was he during the siege of Whiterun shouldn't he be in charge of planning the defense not just his second in command he is a general after all having him there would have boosted moral and when you arrive at the Castle he surrenders but his second in command Legate Rikke doesn't and proceeds to retaliate but why does he join in he just surrendered why go against your word and just join in at the last second at least Ulfric went down with dignity fighting well anyway irrelevant after he surrenders the second time he finally gets killed by the Dovakin or Ulfric the same way and the same thing that happens with Ulfric only it makes more sense when Ulfric does it he was supposed to be in the field not just lie around the Castle Dour all day.

The nords or at that time nede were right to fight back but the fact that they attempted to drive the Snow Elves to extinction can never ever be justified.

Well considering the fact that the Falmer had a neutral relationship with the Nede's or Proto-Nords even their leader even named their land after them when they arrived and then they just threw that all away all because they wanted an artifact or all for some fear of population overflow of some kind also they killed the Nedes to the point were it was just Ysgramor and his two sons they considered wiping them all out all because they reproduced faster than them when the Nords retaliated it was to avenge the violent genocide they suffered during the Night of Tears the Falmer did it to get an orb or out of paranoia so to the Falmer the acquisition of an orb or the fear of a race exceeding their population out way the lives of an entire species of allies that only immigrated there to flee from a civil war that was raging in their previous homeland Atmora and their degeneration was mainly self inflicted as stated by Knight-Paladin Gelebor they were given a choice they were not forced to become blind or degenerate over time and couldn't they call aid from other Races of Mer for help I mean they lived in a age were Mer were the governing race of Tamriel it wasn't called the Merethic age for nothing.
