But I can't redirect to outer networks using policy routing, only to gateways I have direct access to. I.e. not Internet.
I have a rented Linux machine out there in the Internet, to route packets there I'd need access to all ISP's gateways.
NAT seems to be my only option to send packets there.

And can I trick squid by putting same iptables rules to that machine?
Or by another NAT, like one machine NATs to port 3129, and on squid machine it NATs to 3128?
