That's because your Squid doesn't realize the connection was
intercepted, because the destination IP did not change from the
requested IP..

The suggested setup is to not intercept connections destined for the
server itself. This neatly avoids this and a couple of other related
issues...

I.e. in iptables nat you have something like

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d ip.of.this.server -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -p tcp --dport 80 -j REIRECT --redirect-to port_of_squid
