Becaus the Dati Leumi camp (Bayit Yehudi, led by Bennett) formed an alliance with Lapid. Likud and the hareidim could form a government, but only if Bayit Yehudi joined. So the reason Lapid has so much power, which he uses to attack the Torah world, is that the Dati Leumi/Modern Orthodox/Religious Zionists – gave it to him (and can take it away at any time).
