Would talking to him in a non-confrontational way help? I know you said that when you tried discussing the problem, it ended with your husband walking off in a "huff". Which just makes me wonder if you belittle or insult him when this happened.
Not trying to accuse you of anything (please correct me if I'm wrong), but you have referred to your husband here as an "insecure control freak", a "jerk", has "stupid inferiority", should "get help", "childish", to list a few. Do you do this when you argue with him?
OP : Do you refer to or * think* of your husband with the above terms ?
OP, your husband is feeling betrayed. Either work on your marriage or move on. Why would you continue torturing your husband emotionally by staying friends with this guy? Isn't your husband's friendship worth more than this guy's?
Have you considered asking your spouse what else you could do to make him more comfortable with your male friends? Are there any hobbies or games he could get into that may help ease his concerns and possibly develop a friendship with your other friend?
I've tried that already. My husband hates my friend.

Sadly, one of my old boyfriends was obsessed with the ex who dumped him, he hang on until he was * healed * and they could be * friends * and then I stepped into the picture.... I quickly realized he was her * friend * because he HOPED that she would * wake up * and take him back.
I ended it because I don't do emotional 3-somes in relationships....

Why should I have to choose? If I ditch my friend, nothing is solved and the same will happen again if I befriend another man.
How about because your husband deserves your loyalty first and foremost???
