After the fire was allowed to go out and the boys missed an opportunity for being rescued Jack managed to accept criticism from Ralph. However when Piggy also spoke against him Jack had an easy target on whom to vent his anger and frustration. Jack punched Piggy in the stomach, which made the fat boy sit down with a bump. Then Jack slapped Piggy's head, which send Piggy's glasses flying and resulted in one of the lenses breaking.

Jack attacked Piggy because he was power-hungry and saw Piggy as a threat to his authority over the boys. Jack was determined to maintain control and saw Piggy's intelligence and reason as a direct challenge to his savage rule. This led to an escalation of tension and ultimately resulted in Jack lashing out violently against Piggy.
