Baal and Osiris?

I've read some literature regarding the Baal-Mot rituals of ancient Mesopotamia.  Mot kills Baal during the dry times of the year and Baal is reborn when the growing season comes back.  Could Baal have been another name for Osiris and Mot for Set?

Another clue from the Chicago Oriental Institute is the Baal statues from ancient Mesopotamia.  Compare the headgear of Baal to that of Osiris. It is the same except feathers were added to Osiris (the feathered serpent?).
