Sabina Metcalf
: Думаю, вы правы - тут речь не о спекуляции как способе заработать (making profit), а именно как о домыслах, допущениях.

Если бы речь шла о спекуляциях, как о "размышлениях", то, ИМХО, должно быть спекуляции на темы (другой падеж). Спекуляции на темах означают именно получение какой-бы то ни было выгоды (не обязательно денежной) от данных вопросов. Как вариант перевода: making security issues a political football.
